Answer:
(2,1) is an example of an ordered pair that is a solution to the equation.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following equation:
[tex]3x - y = 5[/tex]
Finding a solution:
To find an ordered pair (x,y) that is a solution to this equation, first we attribute a value to one of the variables, and then replace in the equation and find the other.
I am going to attribute [tex]y = 1[/tex]
So
[tex]3x - y = 5[/tex]
[tex]3x - 1 = 5[/tex]
[tex]3x = 6[/tex]
[tex]x = \frac{6}{3}[/tex]
[tex]x = 2[/tex]
(2,1) is an example of an ordered pair that is a solution to the equation.
