{{{y=x-7}}}

plug in: if left side of equation is equal to right side then ordered pairs are a solution to the given equation

1. (2,-5)......{{{x=2}}} and {{{y = -5}}}
2. (1,6)......{{{x=1}}} and {{{y = 6}}}

1. {{{y=x-7}}}
{{{-5=2-7}}}
{{{-5=-5}}}.........this IS a solution to the given equation

2. {{{6=1-7}}} 

{{{6=-6}}}..........this IS NOT a solution to the given equation
