To find any 2 ordered pairs.

Take any simple x or y value and find the corresponding y or x value.

For eg. If x = 1

then 3x + 5y = 10
 3(1) + 5y = 10 = 5y = 7
y = 7/5

You may find many such points, just like that! :D

exactly...just sub a number in for x....any number, and then find y. That is an ordered pair that is a solution to your equation.
