To determine which of the ordered pairs 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 check if the corresponding \( y \) value matches.
-
For the ordered pair \( (7, 1) \):
- Substitute \( x = 7 \): \[ y = 2(7) + 5 = 14 + 5 = 19 \]
- The output doesn't match \( y = 1 \).
-
For the ordered pair \( (1, 7) \):
- Substitute \( x = 1 \): \[ y = 2(1) + 5 = 2 + 5 = 7 \]
- The output matches \( y = 7 \).
-
For the ordered pair \( (3, -1) \):
- Substitute \( x = 3 \): \[ y = 2(3) + 5 = 6 + 5 = 11 \]
- The output doesn't match \( y = -1 \).
-
For the ordered pair \( (1, 2) \):
- Substitute \( x = 1 \): \[ y = 2(1) + 5 = 2 + 5 = 7 \]
- The output doesn't match \( y = 2 \).
Thus, the only ordered pair that satisfies the equation \( y = 2x + 5 \) is \( (1, 7) \). Therefore, the correct response is:
(1, 7)
