Question

What is the ordered pair for this equation y=3x+7?

Answer 1

There are actually an infinite number of ordered pairs that will satisfy the equation `y=3x+7` including (-1,4), (0,7) and (1, 10).

Explanation:

There are actually an infinite number of ordered pairs that will satisfy the equation `y=3x+7`

By plugging in values for x in the equation we can solve for y.

In the table below we see several of the possible coordinate ordered pairs of the equation `y=3x+7`

Answer 2

There are many correct answers,as explained above.

Explanation:

x is known as the independent variable and you can CHOOSE any value for x. y is known as the dependent variable, because the value of y DEPENDS on the value you choose for x. Each x value will give you a unique y value which you can calculate by multiplying the x value by 3 and then adding 7. The ordered pair could be written as (x, 3x+7).
