Ordered pairs are called ordered because the values are given in a particular order. If the equation is in x and y, then the ordered pair is (x, y). So where you are given the first number in the ordered pair, you substitute that value for x in the equation and do the indicated arithmetic to determine the value for y that completes the ordered pair. Where you are given the second number in the ordered pair, substitute that number for y in the equation and do the indicated arithmetic to determine the value for x.

can someone help me with this problem, by completing each order of pair of the given equation
y =2x + 5:
(8, ), : y = 2*8+5 = 21
(-1, ),: y = 2*-1+5 = 3
------------------------------
x = (y - 5)/2
( , -1): x = (-1 - 5)/2 = -3
