Question

What are 3 solutions on a graph to 2y=5x+11

Answer 1

well you can find out by changing this equation into the slope intercept form
y = 5/2 x + 11/2

Answer 2

Welcome to Openstudy. Basically what they mean by solutions are points on the graph

Answer 3

So we plug in any 3 values for x (say -1, 0, and 1) and plug them into the "x" part of our equation and solve for y

Answer 4

Yeah but I need help doing

Answer 5

Can you give me 3 ordered pairs that are correct?(:
Everything I am doing is always wrong on this and I really need too pass this!

Answer 6

x= -1
2y=5(-1)+11
2y= -5+11
2y=6
y=3

so we plugged in -1 for x and got a y-value of 3, so one solution is (-1,3)

We need to do the same, except plug in 0 and 1
If you don't follow just let me know (:

Answer 7

Thank you! is 1,8 a solution? Can you give me 1 more ordered pair lol

Answer 8

Yes it is! You can pick anything you want for x

Answer 9

I messaged you lol

Answer 10

Oh yeah, you just have to plug in any number in for x and then solve for y, and then those two numbers are the order pair, where the x goes first and then the y goes second

Answer 11

The same method you used to get (1,8), except instead of using 1, you can use any number, I find that using that 0 is relatively easy
