What are two ordered pair that are solutions of the equation 3y-2x=9

Answer 1

To find an ordered pair that are solutions for an equation, select a value for x or y and solve the equation for the other variable.

For your equation, let's choose x = 0 and solve for y:

3y - 2x = 9

3y - 2*0 = 9

3y = 9

3y/3 = 9/3

y = 3

So one ordered pair that is a solution is (0, 3)

Let's retry using y = 0 and solving for x:

3y - 2x = 9

3 * 0 - 2x = 9

-2x = 9

-2x/-2 = 9/-2

x = -9/2 or - 4 and 1/2

Another ordered pair would be ( -9/2 , 0)
