If y = 6x - 4 which of the following sets represents possible inputs and outputs of the function represented as ordered pairs?
(0,-4) (1,2) (3,14)
(5,20) (2,10) (-1,-3)
(-3,-15) (6,25) (3,5)
(4,18) (0,10) (0,-2)
The only of these that is a proper set of ordered pairs for this equations is A) (0,-4) (1,2) (3,14)
In order to prove this, you need to put each ordered pair into the equation and prove that it is a true statement. Below are the examples of this for A.
(0, -4)
y = 6x - 4
-4 = 6(0) - 4
-4 = 0 - 4
-4 = -4 (TRUE)
(1, 2)
y = 6x - 4
2 = 6(1) - 4
2 = 6 - 4
2 = 2 (TRUE)
(3, 14)
y = 6x - 4
14 = 6(3) - 4
14 = 18 - 4
14 = 14 (TRUE)
Therefore, each of these ordered pairs works in the equation.
