Question

Which ordered pair is a solution for 3x - 1 = y?

Answer 1

(2.5)

Explanation:

• Simply because if we tried it it works : 3*2-1=6-1=5
• y=5 so it's true

Answer 2

Answer: A (2,5)

Step-by-step explanation: Remove Parenthesis

y = 3 (2) - 1

Simplify 3 (2) - 1

Multiply 3 by 2

y = 6 - 1

Subtract 1 from 6

y = 5

Use the x and y values to from the ordered pair.
