To determine the solution to the equation \( 2.5 - 3x = 10 \), we first need to rearrange the equation to solve for \( x \).
1. Start with the original equation:
\[
2.5 - 3x = 10
\]
2. Subtract \( 2.5 \) from both sides:
\[
-3x = 10 - 2.5
\]
\[
-3x = 7.5
\]
3. Divide both sides by \(-3\):
\[
x = \frac{7.5}{-3}
\]
\[
x = -2.5
\]
Now, the solution to the equation is \( x = -2.5 \).
Next, if you're looking for an ordered pair solution, we can express this as:
\[
(-2.5, y)
\]
Since the original equation does not involve \( y \), \( y \) can be any real number. Therefore, any pair of the form \((-2.5, y)\) where \( y \) is any real number will be a solution.
If you have specific ordered pairs you'd like me to check against the equation, please provide those options!
