Solution by Steps
step 2
For the ordered pair (2,2)(2, 2), substituting x=2x = 2 and y=2y = 2 into the equation gives 2(2)+3(2)=4+6=102(2) + 3(2) = 4 + 6 = 10, which is true. Therefore, (2,2)(2, 2) is a solution
step 3
For the ordered pair (1,3)(1, 3), substituting x=1x = 1 and y=3y = 3 into the equation gives 2(1)+3(3)=2+9=112(1) + 3(3) = 2 + 9 = 11, which is not equal to 10. Therefore, (1,3)(1, 3) is not a solution
