Give three ordered pairs that are solutions to the equation $\"3x+-+y+=+8\"$ . \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"3x+-+y+=+8\"$
\n" ); document.write( "

\r\n" );
document.write( "Solve for y.\r\n" );
document.write( "Add -3x to both sides to get rid of the 3x on the left\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Multiply both sides by \r\n" );
