Need help to replace a pattern on specific line in a data file

Hi,

I want to replace specific pattern "-2.0000 2" by "1.0000 3" on a particular line (line #5) in a file 1.dat. I have about 50 more files similar to 1.dat in which I want to do this correction.

Can you please suggest how can I make change only at this particular line of a file and retain remaining file as it is.

Code:
$cat 1.dat
      1     4.619209   -2.737649   16.892469  -2.0000       2      10       1
      2    -4.132976    1.244385   16.892469  -2.0000       2      10       2

$


I tried
Code:
sed -n '5p' 1.dat |"s/-2.0000       1/1.0000       3/" > 1.dat

, but this just print line #5 and do not give remaining content.

Thank you,
Anuj

NAME
mlib_VideoColorYUV444seq_to_ABGRint - color convert YUV sequential to ABGR interleaved SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag... ] file... -lmlib [ library... ] #include <mlib.h> void mlib_VideoColorYUV444seq_to_ABGRint(mlib_u32 *ABGR, const mlib_u8 *Y, const mlib_u8 *U, const mlib_u8 *V, const mlib_u8 *A_array, mlib_u8 A_const, mlib_s32 w, mlib_s32 h, mlib_s32 dlb, mlib_s32 slb); DESCRIPTION
The Y, U, V pixel streams are converted into an ABGR pixel stream. All pixel components are 8-bit unsigned integers. All buffers have dimensions w and h. The alpha values for this function work in the following fashion: o If A_array pointer is not NULL, the values are taken from there. It has to have the same dimensions as the Y buffer. o If A_array pointer is NULL, the alpha values for every pixel are set to A_const. The following equation is used: |R| |1.1644 0.0000 1.5966| [|Y| | 16.0000|] |G| = |1.1644 -0.3920 -0.8132| * [|U| - |128.0000|] |B| |1.1644 2.0184 0.0000| [|V| |128.0000|] PARAMETERS
The function takes the following arguments: ABGR Pointer to output buffer. Y Pointer to Y input buffer. U Pointer to U input buffer. V Pointer to V input buffer. A_array Array of alpha values. A_const Constant alpha value. w Image width in pixels. h Image height in lines. dlb Linebytes for output buffer. slb Linebytes for input buffers. RETURN VALUES
None. ATTRIBUTES
