Place the x (1.5) and y (5) values into the equation, and solve. If the statement you get is true, it is a solution.
2x - y = -1
2(1.5) - 5 = -1
3 - 5 = -1
-2 ≠ -1
Since this is a false statement, negative 2 is not equal to -1, the ordered pair is NOT a solution. I hope this helps and have a great day!
Answer:
No the answer is incorrect
Step-by-step explanation:
2*1.5-5=-1
3-5=-1
-2=-1
-1 and -2 are not the same
The correct answer is 2,5
