Answer 1

To determine which coordinate pairs are points on the parabola given by the equation \( y = 2x^2 - 24x - 15 \), we can substitute the x-values from each coordinate pair into the equation and see if the resulting y-value matches the y-value given in the pair.

1. For the point \( (2, -15) \):
\[
y = 2(2^2) - 24(2) - 15 = 2(4) - 48 - 15 = 8 - 48 - 15 = -55
\]
(Does not match -15)

2. For the point \( (-11, 7) \):
\[
y = 2(-11^2) - 24(-11) - 15 = 2(121) + 264 - 15 = 242 + 264 - 15 = 491
\]
(Does not match 7)

3. For the point \( (2, -47) \):
\[
y = 2(2^2) - 24(2) - 15 = 2(4) - 48 - 15 = 8 - 48 - 15 = -55
\]
(Does not match -47)

4. For the point \( (11, -37) \):
\[
y = 2(11^2) - 24(11) - 15 = 2(121) - 264 - 15 = 242 - 264 - 15 = -37
\]
(Matches -37)

The coordinate pair \( (11, -37) \) is a point on the parabola.
