To determine which ordered pairs are part of the solution set for the equation \( y = 5x^2 - 2 \), we will substitute the x-values from each ordered pair into the equation and see if the resulting y-value matches the corresponding y-value of the pair.

  1. For the pair \((-1, 43)\): \[ y = 5(-1)^2 - 2 = 5(1) - 2 = 5 - 2 = 3 \] (not equal to 43)

  2. For the pair \((-1, 3)\): \[ y = 5(-1)^2 - 2 = 5(1) - 2 = 5 - 2 = 3 \] (equal to 3, so this pair is a solution)

  3. For the pair \((1, 5)\): \[ y = 5(1)^2 - 2 = 5(1) - 2 = 5 - 2 = 3 \] (not equal to 5)

  4. For the pair \((-1, 5)\): \[ y = 5(-1)^2 - 2 = 5(1) - 2 = 5 - 2 = 3 \] (not equal to 5)

The only ordered pair that satisfies the equation is \((-1, 3)\).

So, the correct answer is: \((-1, 3)\)
