Explanation:

To add on to what @Ladybug said, here are some examples. Say I want $x = 7$ $x = 7$ . Plug that into the equation and get the resulting $y$ $y$ value:

$y = 3 x - 5$ $y=3x-5$
$y = 3 (7) - 5$ $y = 3(7) - 5$
$y = 21 - 5$ $y= 21 - 5$
$y = 16$ $y = 16$

So the first ordered pair would be $(7, 16)$ $(7,16)$ . You can choose any value for $x$ $x$ , and find a result for $y$ $y$ to make an ordered pair.
