plug them into the equation

pooja195 (pooja195):

\[(x,y)\]

OpenStudy (16shuston):

yeah so plug in a set of ordered pairs for example we will take A. (-2,5) so 5=-2-5 and then it will = 5=-7 which is not correct.. so find one that is 5=5

OpenStudy (16shuston):

x is -2 and 5 is y

OpenStudy (16shuston):
