How do you complete the ordered pair (-1/2, ?) given y = 2x + 6?

The completed ordered pair is $(- \frac{1}{2}, 5)$ $(-1/2,5)$ .

Explanation:

We are given that the ordered pair $(x, y)$ $(x,y)$ satisfy the cond. that,

$y = 2 x + 6$ $y=2x+6$ .

Now, if the completed ordered pair is $(- \frac{1}{2}, y), t h e n, y = 2 x + 6$ $(-1/2,y), then, y=2x+6$

$\Rightarrow y = 2 (- \frac{1}{2}) + 6$ $rArr y=2(-1/2)+6$

$= - 1 + 6 = 5$ $=-1+6=5$ .

Hence, $(- \frac{1}{2}, y) = (- \frac{1}{2}, 5) .$ $(-1/2,y)=(-1/2,5).$
