OpenStudy (anonymous):

No, it's one solution because (0,-4) is one order pair.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how do i know its on ordered pair?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay, so when you work out a solution to your problem and you end up with the sum of 2 variables, those are your ordered pair. For example, If a=2 b=3 Your order pair would be (2,3) Basically, you have (a,b) or whatever given variable Then you work out your equation, then plug the numbers into the variables. Get it?
