Answer: Choice B. (6, 20)

================================================

Explanation:

Based on the answer choices, only choice B has a y coordinate of y = 20. So this must be the answer.

--------

Let's plug in y = 20 to find x

3x+2y = 58

3x+2(20) = 58 .... replace y with 20

3x+40 = 58

3x+40-40 = 58-40 .... subtract 40 from both sides

3x = 18

3x/3 = 18/3 .... dividing both sides by 6

x = 6

We have x = 6 and y = 20 pair up to form the ordered pair (x,y) = (6,20) which confirms B is the correct answer.
