determin which ordered pair is a soulution to the equation. 1.5x-2y=8

3 answers

To determine which ordered pair is a solution to the equation 1.5x2y=8, we can substitute the values of x and y from each ordered pair into the equation and see if the equation holds true (i.e., both sides are equal).

Please provide the ordered pairs you want to test, and I can help you determine which, if any, satisfy the equation.

(-4, -7) (4, -7) (4, 7) (-4, 7)

Let's test each ordered pair to see if it satisfies the equation 1.5x2y=8.

  1. For the pair (4,7): 1.5(4)2(7)=6+14=8 This is a solution.

  2. For the pair (4,7): 1.5(4)2(7)=6+14=20 This is not a solution.

  3. For the pair (4,7): 1.5(4)2(7)=614=8 This is not a solution.

  4. For the pair (4,7): 1.5(4)2(7)=614=20 This is not a solution.

Thus, the only ordered pair that is a solution to the equation 1.5x2y=8 is (4,7).
