Question

consider the following equation.

$7x - 2y = 6$

step 2 of 2: determine the missing coordinate in the ordered pair $left(?, \frac{1}{2}\
ight)$ so that it will satisfy the given equation.

answer 2 points

$\left(\boxed{\quad}, \frac{1}{2}\
ight)$

Explanation:

Step1: Substitute $y=\frac{1}{2}$ into equation

$7x - 2\times\frac{1}{2} = 6$

Step2: Simplify the constant term

$7x - 1 = 6$

Step3: Isolate the $x$-term

$7x = 6 + 1$
$7x = 7$

Step4: Solve for $x$

$x = \frac{7}{7} = 1$

Answer:

$1$
