A solution of a system of two linear equations is represented by an:
AOrdered ticket
BOrdered pair
COrdered pizza
DOrdered ledger
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. Ordered pair
1. A solution has to give a value for x and a value for y at once.
2. Those two values are written together in a fixed order.
3. A solution of a system of two linear equations is represented by an ordered pair.
4. So the answer is an ordered pair.
