Question

Which ordered pair is a solution to the equation?

Answer 1

Answer:

y=4/5x-3 - (-5, -7)

Step-by-step explanation:

So to solve this, lets just plug in each value for x, and see if the y value we get is equal to one of our answers.

So we have (-10, 5)

Well plug in -10 for 4/5x we get:

-40/5=-8

Next we take that value and solve:

y=-8-3

y=-11

The answer for this was 5, not -11.

Ill skip a few steps:

(10, -11):

Plug in 10 we get:

y=8-3 which is y=5. This is not right, for it needed to be -11.

Next we have (5, -1)

This gets us y=4-3 this is y=1 which is not -1. So thats not right.

Finally we have (-5, -7):

This gets us y=-4-3 this is y=-7. What was our y value? -7!

So the answer is (-5, -7)

I hope this helps! :)
