Question

Identify the ordered pair on the graph of the equation 2x + 5y = 4.

Answer 1

What you would do is you would substitute each ordered pair into their respective variables. (ie. for (0,1) you would put 0 where the x is and 1 where the y is) You would then solve the equation. If the equation is not even (ie. 2=5 would not be even but 4=4 would be), you move on to the next ordered pair.

If you follow the process right and you get the equations correct, the answer should be B. (7,-2)
