Ordered Pairs and Linear Equations

The video tutorial covers first-degree equations with two variables, explaining their structure and how they can be expressed in the form Ax + By = C. It provides examples and discusses the concept of infinite solutions, demonstrating how to check if a given pair of values is a solution to an equation. The tutorial also shows how to find solutions when one variable's value is provided.

What is the general form of a linear equation with two variables?

• Ax + By = C

• Ax^2 + By^2 = C

• Ax^2 + By = C

• Ax + By^2 = C

Why can't the coefficients A and B be zero in the equation Ax + By = C?

• Because it would make the equation undefined

• Because it would eliminate one of the variables

• Because it would make the equation nonlinear

• Because it would make the equation quadratic

In the equation 3X + 2Y = 16, what are the values of A, B, and C?

• A = 3, B = 2, C = 16

• A = 2, B = 3, C = 16

• A = 3, B = 16, C = 2

• A = 16, B = 3, C = 2

What does an ordered pair (X, Y) represent in the context of linear equations?

• A constant value

• A set of variables

• A pair of coefficients

• A single solution to the equation

If X + Y = 10, which of the following is a possible solution?

• All of the above

• (1, 9)

• (5, 5)

• (10, 0)

How do you verify if an ordered pair is a solution to a linear equation?

• By substituting the values into the equation

• By solving for one variable

• By checking the coefficients

• By graphing the equation

For the equation 3X + 2Y = 16, is the ordered pair (2, 5) a solution?

• Yes, because it satisfies the equation

• No, because it does not satisfy the equation

• Yes, because it is a possible solution

• No, because it is not a possible solution

What happens if you switch the values in an ordered pair?

• The coefficients change

• The equation becomes invalid

• The solution may change

• The solution remains the same

When given Y = -1 in the equation 3X + 2Y = 16, what is the value of X?

• X = 6

• X = 7

• X = 5

• X = 8

What is the importance of maintaining the order in an ordered pair?

• It ensures the correct solution

• It alters the equation

• It changes the coefficients

• It affects the constants
