order pair y=-x+9

Question

order pair for y=-x+9

Answer 1

Don,

 

This is a linear equation (that means it's a line).

 

So, any ordered pair (x,y) that solves this equation is on the line.

 

If you pick any value of x, say 0, then:

 

y = -0 + 9

 

y = 9

 

So, one ordered pair is (0,9).

 

To find another, just pick another value for x.

 

Hope this helps!
