Question

which point lies on the line y=-2x-3?

Answers:
a.) (-2,-1)
b.) (-2,1)
c.) (-1,-2)
d.) (1,1)

Answer 1

this is a guesss and solve problem... they gave you the equation just pick an answer and plug the first number in that answer for x in the equation and solve for y, if the solution you get for y is the same as the second number in the answer you pick that is the correct answer. for example imma achoose D(i know its not right already but i don't want to do it for you or else you wont know how to) D(1,1) the first number will be x- y= -2(1)-3 will give me the answer that y=-5 negative 5 doesnt match the second number in the answer D which is suppose to be 1 so D is not right
