Question 647297: Choose a set of two ordered pairs that satisfy the equation and have the same x=coordinates but different y coordinates
x^2=y^2
(7,7)(7,-7)
(8,-9(9,9)
(5,-6)(6,6)
(1,-1)(1,5)
My answer would be (1,-1)(1,5) but will that be correct? thank you

Hi,

Choose a set of two ordered pairs that satisfy the equation 

and have the same x=coordinates but different y coordinates

 x^2=y^2 

Two of the (x,y) choices qualify:

(7,7)(7,-7)******  7^2 = 7^2  and 7^2 = (-7)^2

(1,-1)(1,5) Note: 1^2 ≠ 5^2
