You can't find THE ordered pair that satisfies

I can't find it, and neither can anyone else. That is because the set of ordered pairs that satisfy the given equation has an infinite number of elements -- in fact, uncountably infinite (unless you restrict the domain to something like the integers or the rationals).

If you need AN ordered pair that satisfies

, just pick any value you like for

, substitute that value in place of

in the equation, and then do the arithmetic required to calculate the value of

. Then your ordered pair will be (x,y) where

is the value you picked and

is the value you calculated.
