Find Three Ordered Pair Solutions h(x)=(3x-19)-(-18+5x)

$h (x) = (3 x - 19) - (- 18 + 5 x)$

Step 1

Write $h (x) = (3 x - 19) - (- 18 + 5 x)$ as an equation.

$y = (3 x - 19) - (- 18 + 5 x)$

Step 2

Solve the equation for $y$ .

Remove parentheses.

$y = 3 x - 19 - (- 18 + 5 x)$

Simplify $3 x - 19 - (- 18 + 5 x)$ .

Simplify each term.

Apply the distributive property.

$y = 3 x - 19 - - 18 - (5 x)$

Multiply $- 1$ by $- 18$ .

$y = 3 x - 19 + 18 - (5 x)$

Multiply $5$ by $- 1$ .

$y = 3 x - 19 + 18 - 5 x$

Simplify by adding terms.

Subtract $5 x$ from $3 x$ .

$y = - 2 x - 19 + 18$

Add $- 19$ and $18$ .

$y = - 2 x - 1$

Step 3

Choose any value for $x$ that is in the domain to plug into the equation.

Step 4

Choose $0$ to substitute in for $x$ to find the ordered pair.

Remove parentheses.

$y = - 2 \cdot 0 - 1$

Simplify $- 2 \cdot 0 - 1$ .

Multiply $- 2$ by $0$ .

$y = 0 - 1$

Subtract $1$ from $0$ .

$y = - 1$

Use the $x$ and $y$ values to form the ordered pair.

$(0, - 1)$

Step 5

Choose $1$ to substitute in for $x$ to find the ordered pair.

Remove parentheses.

$y = - 2 \cdot 1 - 1$

Simplify $- 2 \cdot 1 - 1$ .

Multiply $- 2$ by $1$ .

$y = - 2 - 1$

Subtract $1$ from $- 2$ .

$y = - 3$

Use the $x$ and $y$ values to form the ordered pair.

$(1, - 3)$

Step 6

Choose $2$ to substitute in for $x$ to find the ordered pair.

Remove parentheses.

$y = - 2 \cdot 2 - 1$

Simplify $- 2 \cdot 2 - 1$ .

Multiply $- 2$ by $2$ .

$y = - 4 - 1$

Subtract $1$ from $- 4$ .

$y = - 5$

Use the $x$ and $y$ values to form the ordered pair.

$(2, - 5)$

Step 7

These are three possible solutions to the equation.

$(0, - 1), (1, - 3), (2, - 5)$

Step 8

Find Three Ordered Pair Solutions h(x)=(3x-19)-(-18+5x)
