Hi,

Suppose I have a list of ordered pairs {{a1,b1},{a2,b2},...,{an,bn}}.
What is an efficient way of pulling out all the pairs such that, if I do 
an operation on the first element in the list, and another on the 
second, and I sum them, they equal some predetermined constant?

For instance, say 3*listpart[[1]]+listpart[[2]]^2

Thanks
