SOLUTION: Is the ordered pair (2,-3) a solution of the equation 8x-3x=7? I got no for the answer but just wanted to double check. I subtracted 8x-3x=5x. So 5x=7 and plug in 2 for x so 5x2=10

Question 1002886: Is the ordered pair (2,-3) a solution of the equation 8x-3x=7? I got no for the answer but just wanted to double check. I subtracted 8x-3x=5x. So 5x=7 and plug in 2 for x so 5x2=10. 10=7 so they're not equal.

No is the answer.
5x = 7 --> x = 1.4 for any value of y.
