Answer:
(3, 2) is the ordered pair for the given system of equations.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
2 x+ y = 8.......................(i)
y = - x + 5........................(ii)
<u>Put y = - x + 5 in equation (i)-</u>
<em>2 x + ( - x+ 5) = 8</em>
<em>2 x - x + 5 = 8</em>
<em>x = 8 - 5</em>
<em>x = 3</em>
<u>Now put x = 3 in equation (ii)-</u>
<em>y = - 3 + 5</em>
<em>y = 2</em>
Hence the (3, 2) is the correct ordered pair.
