Mr. Hann is trying to decide how many new copies of a book to order for his students. Each book weighs 6 ounces. Which ordered pair is a viable solution if x represents the number of books he orders and y represents the total weight of the books, in ounces? (–3, –18) (–0.5, –3) (0, 0) (0.5, 3)

Only 0,0 You don't order negative numbers of books which eliminates the first two pairs. And you don't order 1/2 a book which eliminates the last pair.

If you order 0 shirts they will weight 0 ounces is the only viable solution.
Yet I consider this a trick question since you don't fill out an order form for 0 books. Perhaps the answer is none of them??

The ordered pair with a viable solution is (0,0). The correct option is C.

What is the unitary method?

The unitary method is a method for solving a problem by the first value of a single unit and then finding the value by multiplying the single value.

We have given :

The Weight of each book = 6 ounces

The Number of books = x

The Total weight of the books = y

Here, x and y must be positive values.

Therefore it could not be a negative value or a fraction or decimal value.

By keeping this point in mind, the ordered pair with a viable solution is (0,0)
