Question

Complete each ordered pair so that it is a solution of the given linear equation. x minus 5 y equals negative 3​; left parenthesis comma 1 right parenthesis comma left parenthesis 7 comma right parenthesis

Answer 1

Answer: The ordered pairs are (2,1) and (7,2).

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

$x-5y=-3$

if y=1

we get that

$x-5y=-3\\\\x-5(1)=-3\\\\x-5=-3\\\\x=-3+5\\\\x=2$

If x= 7, we get that

$x-5y=-3\\\\7-5y=-3\\\\-5y=-3-7\\\\-5y=-10\\\\y=\dfrac{10}{5}\\\\y=2$

So, the ordered pairs are (2,1) and (7,2).
