Question

find an ordered pair (x, y) that is a solution to the equation. 6x + y = 9 (x, y) = (□, □)

Explanation:

Step1: Choose a value for x

Let's choose \( x = 0 \).

Step2: Substitute x into the equation

Substitute \( x = 0 \) into \( 6x + y = 9 \), we get \( 6(0)+y = 9 \), which simplifies to \( y = 9 \).

Answer:

\((0, 9)\) (Note: There are other possible solutions, for example, if we choose \( x = 1 \), then \( 6(1)+y = 9 \), so \( y = 3 \), and the ordered pair would be \((1, 3)\).)
