i m trying to get two ordered pairs to -5x=3 can u help

Answer provided by our tutors

An ordered pair is a composition of the 'x' coordinate and the 'y 'coordinate, having two values written in a fixed order within parentheses.

Since the ordered pair needs to satisfy the equation '-5x = 3', we can select any value for 'y' and we need to solve the equation to find 'x'.

-5x = 3 divide both sides of the equation by -5

x = -3/5

So, the ordered pairs have the form (-3/5, y) where 'y' is any value.

Or, specifically (-3/5, 0) and (-3/5, 1) are two such ordered pairs.
