Question

which ordered pair comes from the table?

x	y
3	4
4	4
5	2
6	5

a. (5, 6)
b. (4, 3)
c. (6, 5)
d. (2, 5)

Explanation:

Step1: Recall ordered pair format

An ordered pair is \((x, y)\), where \(x\) is from the first column and \(y\) from the second.

Step2: Check each option

• Option A: \((5, 6)\) – Table has \(x = 5, y = 2\), not 6. Eliminate.
• Option B: \((4, 3)\) – Table has \(x = 4, y = 4\), not 3. Eliminate.
• Option C: \((6, 5)\) – Table has \(x = 6, y = 5\). This matches.
• Option D: \((2, 5)\) – Table has \(x = 6, y = 5\), \(x\) not 2. Eliminate.

Answer:

C. (6, 5)
