Find the value of athat makes the ordered pair a solution of the equation.

y=-3x-1;a,5

Short Answer

Expert verified

The value a=-2 would make the ordered pair a,5 a solution of the given equation.

Step by step solution

01

Step 1. Given Information.

An equation: y=-3x-1 and the point: a,5

02

Step 2. Calculation.

To find the value of a, we will substitute coordinates of given point in our given equation and solve for a as:

y=鈭�3x鈭�1(Givenequation)5=鈭�3(a)鈭�1Substitutingx=aandy=55=鈭�3a鈭�15+1=鈭�3a鈭�1+1鈥勨赌勨赌勨赌勨赌勨赌勨赌勨赌勨赌勨赌勨赌勨赌勨赌勨赌勨赌勨赌勨赌勨赌勨赌�础诲诲颈苍驳鈥�1鈥则辞鈥别补肠丑鈥剆颈诲别6=鈭�3a鈭�3a=6Switchingsides鈭�3a鈭�3=6鈭�3Dividingbothsidesby鈭�3a=鈭�2

Therefore, the value of a would be -2.
