Which of the ordered pairs in the form x, y is a solution of this equation

The first is a solution, but the second is not

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If a ordered pair is a solution of a linear equation, then the ordered pair must satisfy the linear equation (makes the equation true)

we have

Verify the first ordered pair

Part a) we have (2,-9)

For x=2, y=-9

substitute in the linear equation

----> is true

so

The ordered pair satisfy the equation

The ordered pair is a solution of the equation

Verify the second ordered pair

Part b) we have (3,-6)

For x=3, y=-6

substitute in the linear equation

----> is not true

so

The ordered pair not satisfy the equation

The ordered pair is not a solution of the equation
