Question

Determine whether or not the ordered pair is a solution to the equation  y=3x+8 (a)  (-5,-7) (b)  (-1,3) (c)  ((1)/(3),g)

Bytelearn · Accepted Answer

Given Equation: We are given the equation y=3x+8 and we need to check if the ordered pairs (-5,-7), (-1,3), and ((1)/(3),g) are solutions to this equation. We will substitute the x-value from each ordered pair into the equation and check if the corresponding y-value satisfies the equation.Ordered Pair (-5,-7): For the ordered pair (-5,-7), substitute x = -5 into the equation y=3x+8. y = 3*(-5) + 8 y = -15 + 8 y = -7 Check if this is equal to the y-value from the ordered pair. -7 = -7 Since the values match, (-5,-7) is a solution to the equation.Ordered Pair (-1,3): For the ordered pair (-1,3), substitute x = -1 into the equation y=3x+8. y = 3*(-1) + 8 y = -3 + 8 y = 5 Check if this is equal to the y-value from the ordered pair. 5 ≠ 3 Since the values do not match, (-1,3) is not a solution to the equation.Ordered Pair ((1)/(3),g): For the ordered pair ((1)/(3),g), substitute x = (1)/(3) into the equation y=3x+8. y = 3*((1)/(3)) + 8 y = 1 + 8 y = 9 Check if this is equal to the y-value from the ordered pair. Since we do not have a specific value for g, we cannot determine if ((1)/(3),g) is a solution unless g=9.
