Find an order pair (x,y) that is a solution to 5x-y=5

1 Answer

6 votes

The ordered pairs are (1, 0) and (0, -5)

Solution:

Given equation is:

5x - y = 5

We have to find the ordered pair which is a solution to given equation

Which means, we have to value of x and y that makes the equation true

Substitute x = 1 and y = 0

5(1) - 0 = 5

5 = 5

Thus, x = 1 and y = 0 is a solution to given equation

Substitute x = 0 and y = -5

5(0) - (-5) = 5

0 + 5 = 5

5 = 5

Thus x = 0 and y = -5 is a solution to given equation
