To determine which pair is a solution for the equation 1.5x2y=8, we can substitute each pair of values into the equation and see if the equation holds true.

  1. Fiona's solution (4, 7): 1.5(4)2(7)=614=8(Not a solution)

  2. Sam's solution (-4, -7): 1.5(4)2(7)=6+14=8(This is a solution)

  3. Mary's solution (4, -7): 1.5(4)2(7)=6+14=20(Not a solution)

  4. Peter's solution (-4, 7): 1.5(4)2(7)=614=20(Not a solution)

The only solution that satisfies the equation 1.5x2y=8 is Sam's belief that (4,7) is a solution.

(3,45)
left parenthesis 3 comma 45 right parenthesis

(3,14)
left parenthesis 3 comma 14 right parenthesis

To determine which ordered pair is part of the solution set for the equation y=4x+2, we will substitute x=3 into the equation and find the corresponding value of y.

Substituting x=3: y=4(3)+2=12+2=14

So, when x=3, y=14. Therefore, the ordered pair (3,14) is a solution of the equation.

Now, let’s check each option:

  1. (3,45): Not a solution, since y14.

  2. (3,12): Not a solution, since y14.

  3. (3,7): Not a solution, since y14.

  4. (3,14): This is a solution, since y=14.

The correct option is (3,14).

To determine which ordered pair is part of the solution set for the equation y=2x+5, we will substitute the x values from each ordered pair into the equation and see if the corresponding y values match.

  1. For (7, 1): y=2(7)+5=14+5=19(not a solution)

  2. For (3, −1): y=2(3)+5=6+5=11(not a solution)

  3. For (1, 2): y=2(1)+5=2+5=7(not a solution)

  4. For (1, 7): y=2(1)+5=2+5=7(this is a solution)

The ordered pair that is part of the solution set for the equation y=2x+5 is (1,7).

To determine which ordered pair is part of the solution set for the equation y=5x22, we will evaluate each pair by substituting the x values into the equation and checking if the resulting y values match.

  1. For (1, 5): y=5(12)2=5(1)2=52=3(not a solution since y5)

  2. For (−1, 43): y=5((1)2)2=5(1)2=52=3(not a solution since y43)

  3. For (−1, 5): y=5((1)2)2=5(1)2=52=3(not a solution since y5)

  4. For (−1, 3): y=5((1)2)2=5(1)2=52=3(this is a solution since y=3)

The ordered pair that is part of the solution set for the equation y=5x22 is (1,3).
