To figure out which ordered pair is a solution to the equation 3x + 5y = 9, substitute the coordinates of each answer choice into the equation. Remember that coordinates are written as (x, y) where the first number in the parentheses is x in the equation and the second number is y in the equation.

A. (-2, -3)
x = -2, y = -3
Substituting into the equation gives
3(-2) + 5(-3) = 9
-6 - 15 = 9
-21 = 9

This does not satisfy the equation, so (-2, -3) is not a solution.

B. (2, 3)
x = 2, y = 3
3(2) + 5(3) = 9
6 + 15 = 9
21 = 9

21 does not equal 9; therefore (2, 3) is not a solution.

C. (-2, 3)
x = -2, y = -3
3(-2) + 5(3) = 9
-6 + 15 = 9
9 = 9

This satisfies the equation, so (-2, 3) is a solution.

D. (2, -3)
x = 2, y = -3
3(2) + 5(-3) = 9
6 - 15 = 9
-9 = 9

This does not satisfy the equation; therefore (2, -3) is not a solution.

Answer:

The average rate of change between these times is 68 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are to determine the average rate of change between hour 2 and hour 7

The distance traveled at hour 2 is 140 miles

The distance traveled at hour 7 is 480 miles

So we can say we have two points and we want to know the rate of change between these points

Mathematically, we can represent the rate of change as Δ

Thus, between the two different times, we have;

Δ = (D7-D2)/(T7-T2)

where (T7,D7) = (7,480) and (T2,D2) = (2,140) represents the time and distance at hour 2 and hour 7 respectively

Now inputing the values into the equation, we have;

Δ = (480-140)/(7-2) = 340/5 = 68 miles/hour
