Answer 1

This is a function. We can fill a table with values.

We solve for y.

y = 15 - 1/3x

 

                   Values

x                 |  0   |  3  |   6   |   -3  |

y=15 - 1/3x |  0   | 14 |  13  |    16 |

 

In the table above, I used the value of x in the first row, to calculate the value of y in the second row.

I am the person that chooses the values for the first row, and I use the expression to calculate the values in the second row.

I calculated 4 ordered pairs of values (0, 0), (3, 14), (6, 13), (-3, 16).

 

Answer 2

There are infinitely many ordered pairs on this line (1/3)x + y = 15.

 

Choose any x value you like, and solve for the associated y.
