Express y in terms of x: First, we need to express y in terms of x to find the ordered pairs that satisfy the equation y−4=7(x−6).y−4=7(x−6)
Distribute 7 to terms: Next, distribute 7 to both terms inside the parentheses.y−4=7x−42
Add 4 to isolate y: Then, add 4 to both sides of the equation to isolate y.y=7x−42+4
Combine like terms: Now, combine like terms on the right side of the equation.y=7x−38
Find ordered pairs: The equation y=7x−38 is now in slope-intercept form, which means we can find ordered pairs by choosing values for x and calculating the corresponding y values.For example, if x=0, then y=7(0)−38=−38. So one ordered pair is (0,−38).
Example with x=0: Let's find another ordered pair. If x=1, then y=7(1)−38=7−38=−31. So another ordered pair is (1,−31).
Example with x=1: We can continue this process to find as many ordered pairs as needed. For instance, if x=6, then y=7(6)−38=42−38=4. So another ordered pair is (6,4).
