Answer:

The missing value is 2. The coordinate will be (-5, 2)

Explanation:

The question is not properly written. Find the correct question below.

If x – 5y = -15 . Complete the missing value in the solution to the equation (-5, ____)

Let the coordinate of the variables be (x, y). Comparing the coordinates (x, y) with the given coordinate (-5, __), we will discover that x = -5. To get the y coordinate, we will substitute x = -5 into the given expression as shown;

If x – 5y = -15

-5 - 5y = -15

Adding 5 both sides

-5-5y+5 = -15+5

-5y = -10

Dividing both sides by -5;

-5y/-5 = -10/-5

y = 2

Hence the missing value in the solution of the equation is 2. The coordinate will be (-5, 2)
