(–10, –30)

To determine if an ordered pair is a solution of the equation y = 3x, substitute the x and y values into the equation and check if both sides are equal.

Let's try the first ordered pair, (-2, -9)

Substitute x = -2 and y = -9 into the equation:
-9 = 3(-2)

This equation simplifies to:
-9 = -6

Since -9 is not equal to -6, the first ordered pair, (-2, -9), is not a solution of the equation y = 3x.

Now, let's try the second ordered pair, (-8, -18)

Substitute x = -8 and y = -18 into the equation:
-18 = 3(-8)

This equation simplifies to:
-18 = -24

Since -18 is not equal to -24, the second ordered pair, (-8, -18), is not a solution of the equation y = 3x.

Next, let's try the third ordered pair, (-8, -3)

Substitute x = -8 and y = -3 into the equation:
-3 = 3(-8)

This equation simplifies to:
-3 = -24

Since -3 is not equal to -24, the third ordered pair, (-8, -3), is not a solution of the equation y = 3x.

Finally, let's try the fourth ordered pair, (-10, -30)

Substitute x = -10 and y = -30 into the equation:
-30 = 3(-10)

This equation simplifies to:
-30 = -30

Since -30 is equal to -30, the fourth ordered pair, (-10, -30), is a solution of the equation y = 3x.

Therefore, the ordered pair (-10, -30) is a solution of the equation y = 3x.

Which ordered pair is a solution of the equation y = –7x + 2?

(1, –7)
(1, –7)

To determine if an ordered pair is a solution of the equation y = -7x + 2, substitute the x and y values into the equation and check if both sides are equal.

Let's try the first ordered pair, (1, 2).

Substitute x = 1 and y = 2 into the equation:
2 = -7(1) + 2

Simplifying the equation:
2 = -7 + 2

This equation simplifies to:
2 = -5

Since 2 is not equal to -5, the first ordered pair, (1, 2), is not a solution of the equation y = -7x + 2.

Let's try the second ordered pair, (8, -54).

Substitute x = 8 and y = -54 into the equation:
-54 = -7(8) + 2

Simplifying the equation:
-54 = -56 + 2

This equation simplifies to:
-54 = -54

Since -54 is equal to -54, the second ordered pair, (8, -54), is a solution of the equation y = -7x + 2.

Let's try the third ordered pair, (5, -35).

Substitute x = 5 and y = -35 into the equation:
-35 = -7(5) + 2

Simplifying the equation:
-35 = -35 + 2

This equation simplifies to:
-35 = -33

Since -35 is not equal to -33, the third ordered pair, (5, -35), is not a solution of the equation y = -7x + 2.

Finally, let's try the fourth ordered pair, (1, -7).

Substitute x = 1 and y = -7 into the equation:
-7 = -7(1) + 2

Simplifying the equation:
-7 = -7 + 2

This equation simplifies to:
-7 = -5

Since -7 is not equal to -5, the fourth ordered pair, (1, -7), is not a solution of the equation y = -7x + 2.

Therefore, the only ordered pair that is a solution of the equation y = -7x + 2 is (8, -54).

The correct graph that represents the relationship between Nick's age and Sara's age is:

The first quadrant of a coordinate plane titled Nick’s and Sara’s Ages. The x-axis is labeled Nick’s Age in years. The y-axis is labeled Sara’s Age in years. The graph shows a line passing through the points (0, 4), (2, 6), and (4, 8).

Solve the following equation.

–4 = g + 1
(1 point)
Responses

g = –4
g = –4

g = 4
g = 4

g = –5
g = –5

g = –3

To solve the equation -4 = g + 1, you can isolate the variable g.

Start by subtracting 1 from both sides of the equation:
-4 - 1 = g + 1 - 1
-5 = g

So, the solution to the equation is:
g = -5

w = negative three-halves
w = Image with alt text: negative three-halves

w = –5
w = –5

w = –1
w = –1

w = 6

To solve the equation w - 2 = -3, you can isolate the variable w.

Start by adding 2 to both sides of the equation:
w - 2 + 2 = -3 + 2
w = -1

So, the solution to the equation is:
w = -1
