This time we found that if x - 3, y would equal 7. The given point had y - 1, so (3, 1) is not a solution to the equation. Since if x - 3 we find that y - 7, the ordered pair (3, 7) would be a solution to the equation. Most of the time we will need to do what is illustrated above. We started with the value of x = 3 and used the equation to determine that the corresponding value of y was 7. Complete the table by finding the value of y that would correspond to the given value of x for the equation y ( 2x 01. X Ordered pair (x, y) 2 O -1 If you plot the points on a rectangular coordinate system and connect them, you will see the graph of a straight line
