Question

Choose the correct ordered pair(s) for the expression $y=6x-2.$

• A. $(1,4)$
• B. $(4,1)$
• C. $(0,-2)$
• D. $(-2,0)$

Answer 1

Answer: (A), (C)

$(0,-2)$

The ordered pair of a linear equation of two variables is represented as $(x,y).$

Let's substitute the values of given options in the given equation and verify.

For $(1,4),$
$y=6x-2$
$\Rightarrow 4=6\left(1\right)-2$
$\Rightarrow 4=4$
LHS = RHS
This is a correct ordered pair.

Similarly, we verify the other given pairs and find that $(0,-2)$ is also a correct ordered pair.
