How do you know if an order pair is on the line of an equation?

Substitute the first of the ordered pair wherever x appears in the equation and the second value wherever you have y. Evaluate the equation. If it is true, then the point is on the line and if not, it is not.

What is the ordered pair for the equation. -x plus y?
There is not "the ordered pair" but infinitely many ordered pairs which, taken together, comprise the straight line defined by the equation.
What is the ordered pair for the equation. -x plus 5y1?
There is not "the ordered pair" but infinitely many ordered pairs which, taken together, comprise the straight line defined by the equation.
What is the answer for y equals 7x plus 8?
The "answer" is a pair of two numbers ... a number for 'x' and a number for 'y' ... that make the equation a true statement. There are an infinite number of answers. You can pick any number out of the blue for 'x', and then use the equation to find out the 'y' that goes with it. Every pair you build this way is an 'answer' to the equation. If you draw the graph of this equation, you get a straight line with no ends. Every point on the line is an 'answer' to the equation, (and you can imagine how many points there are on a line with no ends).
Can a pair of linear equation have exactly two solutions?
No. A pair of linear equation can have 0 solutions (they are parallel), or one solution (they cross at one point) or an infinite number of solutions (they represent the same line).
What is y equals 6x plus 4?
It is a linear equation in two variables, x and y. Any point on the line defined by the equation will satisfy the equation and conversely, any ordered pair that satisfies the equation will represent a point, in the Cartesian plane, will be on the line.
What is the ordered pair to 2x-5y equals -1?
The equation 2x-5y=-1 has a graph that is a line. Every point on that line is an ordered pair that is a solution to the equation. So pick any real number x and plug it in. You will find a y and that pair (x,y) is an ordered pair that is a solution to this equation. For example, let x=0 Then we have -5y=-1so y=1/5 The ordered pair (0, 1/5) is a point on the line and a solution to the equation.
What is the ordered pair of y equals 6x-9?

What is y equals 6x plus 4?
It is a linear equation in two variables, x and y. Any point on the line defined by the equation will satisfy the equation and conversely, any ordered pair that satisfies the equation will represent a point, in the Cartesian plane, will be on the line.
What is y equals 1x plus 6?
It is a linear equation in the two variables x and y. A single linear equation in two variables cannot be solved for a unique pair of values of x and y. The equation is that of a straight line and any point on the line satisfies the equation.
Is the ordered pair (-8-7) a solution to the equation 3x 102y?
Without an equality sign the given terms can't be considered to be a straight line equation.
Which ordered pair is a solution to the equation x plus 2 equals y?
There are infinitely many ordered pairs: each point on the straight line defined by the equation is an ordered pair that is a solution. One example is (0.5, 2.5)
What ordered pair is a solution of the equation 5x plus 3y equals negative 7?
The coordinates of every one of the infinitely many points on the line defined by the equation is a solution.
Which is a solution to the equation y equals 2x-5?
