Question

Not sure how I would solve this

Answer 1

1. (-4, -3)
2. (8, 3)

Explanation:

As always, put the given information into the equation and solve for the unknown variable.

First ordered pair

x -2(-3) = 2

x +6 = 2 . . . . simplify

x = -4 . . . . . . subtract 4

(x, y) = (-4, -3)

Second ordered pair

8 -2y = 2

-2y = -6 . . . . . subtract 8

y = 3 . . . . . . . divide by -2

(x, y) = (8, 3)
