You can put this solution on YOUR website!
I'm assuming that the equation is \"y-x=5\" right ? If I'm wrong, let me know.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Since we have the ordered pair (2,7), this means that \"x=2\" and \"y=7\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"y-x=5\" Start with the given equation\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"7-2=5\" Plug in \"x=2\" and \"y=7\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"5=5\" Subtract\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Since the equation is true, this means that ordered pair (2,7) is a solution to the equation \"y-x=5\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
