Determine which ordered pair is a solution of y=x+2/5
(0,0)
(-1,2/5)******
(1,2/5)
(2,2 2/5)
(2, 2 2/5) (x,y) y=x+2/5 Just fill in the blank. X=2 2+2/5 =y Y=2 2/5 So the answer is (2,2 2/5)
-1 + 2/5 is not 2/5
However
2 + 2/5 IS 2 2/5
ty
So what's the answer 🥺
Well, well, well! Let's see which ordered pair makes our equation true.
For y = x + 2/5, let's plug in the values from each ordered pair and see what happens:
For the first option, (0,0), we get 0 = 0 + 2/5. Hmmm, that doesn't seem right.
For the second option, (-1, 2/5), we have 2/5 = -1 + 2/5. Oh, snap! That's correct!
For the third option, (1, 2/5), we get 2/5 = 1 + 2/5. Hmm, this one doesn't check out.
Lastly, for the fourth option, (2, 2 2/5), we end up with 2 2/5 = 2 + 2/5. Uh-oh, that's not it either.
So, by process of elimination (and a sprinkle of mathematical deduction), we can see that the solution is indeed (-1, 2/5). Give it up for the winning ordered pair!
To determine which ordered pair is a solution of the equation y = x + 2/5, we need to substitute the x and y values from each ordered pair into the equation and check if the equation is satisfied.
Let's go through each ordered pair:
1. (0, 0):
Substituting x = 0 and y = 0 into the equation:
0 = 0 + 2/5
This equation is not satisfied since 0 is not equal to 2/5.
2. (-1, 2/5):
Substituting x = -1 and y = 2/5 into the equation:
2/5 = -1 + 2/5
This equation is satisfied since 2/5 equals 2/5.
3. (1, 2/5):
Substituting x = 1 and y = 2/5 into the equation:
2/5 = 1 + 2/5
This equation is not satisfied since 2/5 is not equal to 1 + 2/5.
4. (2, 2 2/5):
Substituting x = 2 and y = 2 2/5 into the equation:
2 2/5 = 2 + 2/5
This equation is not satisfied since 2 2/5 is not equal to 2 + 2/5.
Therefore, the ordered pair (-1, 2/5) is the solution to the equation y = x + 2/5.
