Identify Equation: Identify the equation to work with.The equation given is y=−2x+5. This is a linear equation in slope-intercept form, where the slope is −2 and the y-intercept is 5.
Choose Values: Choose values for x to find corresponding values for y. Let's choose x=0 to find the first ordered pair.
Substitute and Solve: Substitute x=0 into the equation and solve for y.y=−2(0)+5y=0+5y=5So, the first ordered pair is (0,5).
Choose Another Value: Choose another value for x to find a second ordered pair.Let's choose x=1 to find the next ordered pair.
Substitute and Solve: Substitute x=1 into the equation and solve for y.y=−2(1)+5y=−2+5y=3So, the second ordered pair is (1,3).
Choose Third Value: Choose a third value for x to find another ordered pair.Let's choose x=−1 to find the next ordered pair.
Substitute and Solve: Substitute x=−1 into the equation and solve for y.y=−2(−1)+5y=2+5y=7So, the third ordered pair is (−1,7).
