To check if a point is a solution to the equation 2x + 3y = -12, we substitute the x and y values into the equation and see if the equation is true.
Let's check each point:
Point (0, -4):
2(0) + 3(-4) = 0 - 12 = -12
The equation is true for this point.
Point (2, -1):
2(2) + 3(-1) = 4 - 3 = 1
The equation is not true for this point.
Point (0, 0):
2(0) + 3(0) = 0 + 0 = 0
The equation is not true for this point.
Point (6, 0):
2(6) + 3(0) = 12 + 0 = 12
The equation is not true for this point.
Therefore, the only point that is a solution to the equation 2x + 3y = -12 is (0, -4).
