<em>Note: your equation is a little bit unclear. Thus, I am assuming that </em>
<em>y = 2x+5</em>

Answer:
We conclude that the ordered pair (2, 1) is a solution.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the equation
Check for point (2, 1)
substituting the point (2, 1) in the equation to check whether the ordered point satisfies the equation or not.
plug in x = 2 and y = 1
1 = -2(2)+5
1 = -4+5
1 = 1
R.H.S = L.H.S
TRUE
Therefore, the given ordered pairs satisifes the equation.
Hence, we conclude that the ordered pair (2, 1) is a solution.
