Q. Which ordered pair is a solution of the equation?5x−2y=18Choose 1 answer:(A) Only (5,3)(B) Only (4,1)(C) Both (5,3) and (4,1)(D) Neither
Substitute values into equation: Substitute the x and y values from option (A) into the equation to check if it satisfies the equation.Option (A) is (5,3), which means x=5 and y=3.Substitute these values into the equation: 5x−2y=18 becomes 5(5)−2(3)=18.Calculate: 25−6=18.Check if the left side equals the right side: 19=18.
