Question

question 3 of 5, step 1 of 2
correct
consider the equation and the following ordered pairs: $(3, y)$ and $(x, 2)$.
$y = -3x + 8$
step 1 of 2: compute the missing $x$ and $y$ values so that each ordered pair will satisfy the given equation.
answer
complete the table below.

Explanation:

Step1: Substitute $x=3$ into equation

$y = -3(3) + 8$

Step2: Calculate $y$ value

$y = -9 + 8 = -1$

Step3: Substitute $y=2$ into equation

$2 = -3x + 8$

Step4: Solve for $x$

$-3x = 2 - 8 = -6$
$x = \frac{-6}{-3} = 2$

Answer:

$x$	$y$
2	2
