Answer 2

The value of the missing y coordinate is -5.

Explanation:

The given line is :

3y + 4x = 5

We need to find the value of missing y-coordinate of this point? (5, ?). Let it is k. This point will satisfy the given equation. It means, put the value of x 5 in given equation.

`3k+4(5)=5\\\\3k+20=5\\\\3k=-15\\\\k=-5`

So, the value of the missing y coordinate is -5.
