Determine the ordered pair that satisfies the equation, - 5x + 3y = 7.

A) (2, - 1)

B) (-5, 3)

C) (7, 14)

D) (-2,-135)

C) (7, 14)

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute each ordered pair into the equation

-5x + 3y = 7.

A) (2, - 1)

-5 (2) + 3 (1) = - 10 + 3 = - 7 this does not equal 7 so not true

B) (-5, 3)

-5 (-5) + 3 (3) = 25 + 9 = 34 this does not equal 7 so not true

C) (7, 14)

-5 (7) + 3 (14) = - 35 + 42 = 7 this equals 7 so true

D) (-2,-135)

-5 (-2) + 3 (-135) = 10+405 = 415 this does not equal 7 so not true
