Find the missing coordinate to complete the ordered-pair solution to the given linear equation.

3x-2y=11

(a) (-1,)

(b) (,2)

Hi there! The solutions are (-1, - 7) and (5, 2)

a. The x-coordinate is given, x = - 1

Filling in this value gives us the following:

3 * - 1 - 2y = 11 - 3 - 2y = 11

Now add 3 to both sides of the equation

-2y = 14

Finally divide by (both sides) - 2

y = 14 / - 2 = - 7

Hence, (-1, - 7)

b. The y-coordinate is given, y = 2

Filling in this value gives us the following:

3x - 2 * 2 = 113x - 4 = 11

Now add 4 to both sides of the equation

3x = 15

Finally divide by (both sides) 3

x = 15 / 3 = 5

Hence, (5, 2)
