Question

If y = 3 and x + y = 5, what ordered pair represents the solution?

Answer 1

Are there options, or..?

Answer 2

A. (-2, 3)
B. (2, -3)
C. (0, 0)
D. (2, 3)

Answer 3

So, they already give you y, which is equal to 3. To find x, you need to plug it back into the equation.

x+y=5
x+3=5
x=2

So the solution will be in the form of (x, y), so it'll be (2, 3)


Make sense?
