Answer:

the first ordered pair is (-2, -2)

the second ordered pair is (4,0)

Explanation:

to find the missing values, plug in the given values into the equation:

x-3y=4

the first ordered pair:

we are given a y-value (-2), so lets plug it into the equation:

x-3*(-2)=4

now solve for the missing value:

x+6=4

x=4-6

x=-2

now plug in both x and y and check if the equation is true:

(-2)-3*(-2)=4

-2+6=4

6-2=4

4=4

the first ordered pair is (-2, -2)

the second ordered pair:

we are given a x-value (4), so lets plug it into the equation:

(4)-3y=4

now solve for the missing value:

-3y=4-4

-3y=0

y=0/-3

y=0

now plug in both x and y and check if the equation is true:

(4)-3*(0)=4

4-0=4

4=4

the second ordered pair is (4,0)
