Question 431298: An equation and two ordered pairs are given. Show that each pair is a solution of the equation. Then graph the two pairs to determine another solution. Answers can vary.

2y + x = 5; (-1, 3). (7, -1)

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
2y + x = 5
---
Checking (-1, 3)
2*3+ -1 = 5
6-1 = 5
5 = 5
--------------------
Checking (7, -1)
2*-1 + 7 = 5
-2+7 = 5
5 = 5
