Find Three Ordered Pair Solutions -5x=12

$- 5 x = 12$

Step 1

Divide each term in $- 5 x = 12$ by $- 5$ and simplify.

Divide each term in $- 5 x = 12$ by $- 5$ .

$\frac{- 5 x}{- 5} = \frac{12}{- 5}$

Simplify the left side.

Cancel the common factor of $- 5$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{- 5 x}{- 5} = \frac{12}{- 5}$

Divide $x$ by $1$ .

$x = \frac{12}{- 5}$

Simplify the right side.

Move the negative in front of the fraction.

$x = - \frac{12}{5}$

Step 2

Since $x = - \frac{12}{5}$ is a vertical line, the x-values are $- \frac{12}{5}$ for any value of y. Choose any three y-values to obtain three solutions.

$(- \frac{12}{5}, 0), (- \frac{12}{5}, 1), (- \frac{12}{5}, 2)$

Step 3
