Question

Find an ordered pair (x, y) that is a solution to the equation.

4x+y=9

Answer 1

(1, 5 )

Explanation:

Choose any value of x, substitute into the equation and solve for y

x = 1, then

4(1) + y = 9, that is

4 + y = 9 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

y = 5

Thus (1, 5 ) is a solution to the equation
