Use the graph of 3x+y=10 to determine an additional ordered pair (x, y) that satisfies the equation. Find the ordered pair (x, y) if the x-coordinate is 3. what is the order pair?

Answer 1

To find an additional ordered pair, we can simply look for any point on the line. One possible way is to read off the intercepts, which can be obtained by setting x or y to zero. For example, when x=0, we get:

3(0) + y = 10

Solving for y, we have y=10, which gives us the ordered pair (0, 10).

To find the ordered pair when x=3, we can substitute x=3 into the equation and solve for y:

3(3) + y = 10

Simplifying, we have 9 + y = 10, which gives us y=1. Therefore, the ordered pair is (3, 1).
