Select the ordered pair that is a solution of this equation.
x-2y = -8
Click on the correct answer.
(2,1)
(2,5)
(5.2)

(2,5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Choose values for  x  and substitute in to find the corresponding  y  values.

(2) - 2y = -8

2 = 2y - 8

10 = 2y

5 = y

(2,5)

let x and 400 - x be the two numbers.  

==> 0.80x + 0.85(400 - x) = 400 - 68 from the statement of the problem.  

< ==> 0.80x + 0.85(400 - x) = 400 - 68  

==> 340 - 0.05x = 332  

< ==> -0.05x = -8 ==> x = 160, the first number ==> 400 - x = 240, the second number.
