B.
(–3, –2), (0, –5), and (3, –2)

C.
(–3, –8), (0, –5), and (3, 2)

really need help and will also become a fan and giving medals

Answer 1

you need help filling that T table in?

Answer 2

no

Answer 3

what do you need help with?

Answer 4

I need help with trying to solve it and I don't lnow if I am correct

Answer 5

the x they give you is the first number in the coordinate pair (x , y) thus the first ordered pair is (-3, y)

Answer 6

i know but im not understanding any of it

Answer 7

so, lets do the first one together?

Answer 8

ok

Answer 9

if y = x-5, and x = -3, then if we put in -3 wherever we see x, it turns out to the problem
y=(-3)-5.

Answer 10

so y = ?

Answer 11

i got -8

Answer 12

correct. so.. your y coordinate for the ordered pair is (x, y) = (-3, -8).

Answer 13

an equation can always be put on a graph. the ordered pairs are simply a point on that line. y = x-5 is the graph y=x shifted to the right 5 units. the graph of y=x is a straight line that passes through the origin (0, 0), if you pick that graph up, and move it over 5 spaces, the points a long that line is what they are asking you to find.

Answer 14

the next one should be easy, y = x-5 if x =0 y = ?

Answer 15

do you understand how to do these? or should I keep trying to help? is this helping?

Answer 16

a little

Answer 17

the table you attached is the best way to do it.

Answer 18

so i know it has to be c or d

Answer 19

ok lets do the last one.

Answer 20

ok

Answer 21

y=x-5 if x=3. substitute 3 wherever you see x and solve the equation. tell me what your choice is for the above question

Answer 22

C.

Answer 23

y = (3) - 5

Answer 24

so am I correct or am I wrong

Answer 25

ohhhhhhhhhhh nvm D.

Answer 26

booh yah!!

Answer 27

becaus -3-5=-2

Answer 28

great work!

Answer 29

thank you
