To determine which ordered pair makes the equation \( 5y - 3x = 5 \) a true statement, we need to substitute each pair into the equation and check for validity.

  1. For the pair \( (5, 4) \): \[ 5(4) - 3(5) = 20 - 15 = 5 \] This is true.

  2. For the pair \( (2, -2) \): \[ 5(-2) - 3(2) = -10 - 6 = -16 \] This is false.

  3. For the pair \( (-2, 0) \): \[ 5(0) - 3(-2) = 0 + 6 = 6 \] This is false.

  4. For the pair \( (0, 4) \): \[ 5(4) - 3(0) = 20 - 0 = 20 \] This is false.

The only ordered pair that satisfies the equation \( 5y - 3x = 5 \) is \( (5, 4) \).

Thus, the correct answer is \( (5, 4) \).
