Question

SOLVE

Which of the following ordered pairs are equal? Write with reason
(a) (2, 3) and (4,2)
​

Answer 1

Answer: (2, 3) and (4,2) are not equal.

Explanation:

An ordered pair is something like (x, y)

and two pairs (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are only equal if x1 = x2 and y1 = y2

in this case, we have (2, 3) and (4, 2)

you can see that in the pairs the value of x is different, and the value of y is also different. Then we have that the pairs can not be equal.
