Determine which ordered pair is a solution of y = 2x - 3

1. (-2, 7)
2. (0, 3)
3. (-4, -11)
4. (5, -7)

Still Don't Get It Minion? Lets Work It Out:

A. (-2, 7)
2 * -2 = -4
-4 - 3 = -7
So, This Wouldn't Be Right Because You're Looking For 7, not -7.

B. (0, 3)
2 * 0 - 3 = -3
So, This Wouldn't Be Right Because Your're Looking For 3, not -3

C. (-4, -11)
2 * -4 = -8
-8 - 3 = -11
So, This IS Right Because The Final Result Matches The Result to This Answer Choice.

D. (5, -7)
2 * 5 = 10
10 - 3 = 7
So, This Wouldn't Be Right Because You're Looking For -7, Not 7.

So, The Correct Answer To This Question Is: C. (-4, -11)

Have A Nice Day!

well, just plug in the x value and see whether you get the y value.

For example, when x=0,

2*0 - 3 = -3 Nope, You want 3.

Now try the others. One will work.

sorry, i was reading a different page and I mixed up the names by mistake. my bad. I ment Anonymous

Let me entertain you with my answer! 🎉

Well, we need to check if the ordered pairs fit the equation y = 2x - 3.

1. (-2, 7):
If we substitute -2 for x, we get y = 2(-2) - 3 = -4 - 3 = -7, not 7. So, this is not a solution, but it's trying to be sneaky!

2. (0, 3):
Plug in 0 for x, we get y = 2(0) - 3 = 0 - 3 = -3, not 3. Sorry, but this is not the right pair either.

3. (-4, -11):
Substituting -4 for x, we get y = 2(-4) - 3 = -8 - 3 = -11. Oh yes! We're on the right track! This seems like a winner.

4. (5, -7):
If we calculate this one, we get y = 2(5) - 3 = 10 - 3 = 7, not -7. Not this time, my friend.

So, the only solution that satisfies the equation y = 2x - 3 is (-4, -11). You cracked the code!

To determine which ordered pair is a solution of the equation y = 2x - 3, you simply need to substitute the x and y values of each ordered pair into the equation and check if it holds true. Let's do this for each option:

1. (-2, 7)
If we substitute the x and y values into the equation, we get:
7 = 2(-2) - 3
7 = -4 - 3
7 = -7 (This is not true)

2. (0, 3)
Substituting the x and y values into the equation:
3 = 2(0) - 3
3 = 0 - 3
3 = -3 (This is not true)

3. (-4, -11)
Substituting the x and y values into the equation:
-11 = 2(-4) - 3
-11 = -8 - 3
-11 = -11 (This is true)

4. (5, -7)
Substituting the x and y values into the equation:
-7 = 2(5) - 3
-7 = 10 - 3
-7 = 7 (This is not true)

Therefore, the only ordered pair that is a solution of the equation y = 2x - 3 is (-4, -11) (Option 3).
