wow thanks

Answer 13

y=\frac{ 1 }{ 5}x-4 Complete the ordered pairs (5, ) (0, )

Answer 14

what about this

Answer 15

all ordered pairs look like this (x,y)

so when they say for instance (2,3) it means

(x,y) = (2,3)

x = 2
y = 3

Answer 16

so

(5, )

means

x = 5
y = unknown

Answer 17

you then plug x = 5 into

\[\Large y=\frac{ 1 }{ 5}x-4\]

and evaluate to find y
