    (26,65)

    Step-by-step explanation:

    We know that each package has 5 sheets of paper and 2 staples. So, to know how many sheets of paper and staples that will be used in 13 packages, we just need to multiply each quantity of material used by 13.

    So, we have that:

    Total sheets of paper = 13 * 5 = 65

    Total staples = 13 * 2 = 26

    So the ordered pair (x, y), where x is staples and y is sheets of paper is:

    (26,65)

    The ordered pair is (26, 65).

    Step-by-step explanation:

    From the given information, a package has 5 sheets of paper and is held together with 2 staples.

    13 packets contains 13 packages, so that:

    Number of sheet of paper required = 13 * 5

    = 65

    Number of staples required = 13 * 2

    = 26

    Therefore, the ordered pair is; staples (26) and sheets of paper (65) i. e (26, 65).
