This is what the directions say:
find three ordered pairs that solve the
equation and draw the graph of each of the
following.

Pick an arbitrary value for x and solve
for y. Do that three times for each
problem, and the x you pick and the y you
come up with will be your ordered pair.

Geez thats a hard one...I'm trying to find
whole numbers but I cant. I only came up
with one...
I havent done this in awhile, so let me
know I fi messed something up erin.
5x - 3y = 15
5(6) - 3y = 15
30 - 3y = 15
-3y = -15
y = 5 therefore, (6,5) is the answer
and so forth...Do that picking a random
number for x and solve. Get it?
