There are infinite solutions to the equation since it is a linear equation with two variables. However, if we want to find specific solutions, we can plug in values for either x or y and solve for the other variable. For example:
If we let x = 0, the equation becomes:
2(0) + 3y = -12
3y = -12
y = -4
So one solution is (0, -4).
If we let y = 0, the equation becomes:
2x + 3(0) = -12
2x = -12
x = -6
So another solution is (-6, 0).
Therefore, the ordered pairs that are solutions to the equation are (0, -4) and (-6, 0).
Select the ordered pair(s) that are solutions to equation below:
`2x+3y=-12`
