To determine which of the given ordered pairs is a solution to the equation 3x-8=-4y, we can substitute the values of x and y into the equation and see if it holds true.

1) For the ordered pair (1,1), if we substitute x=1 and y=1 into the equation, we get:
3(1) - 8 = -4(1)
3 - 8 = -4
-5 = -4
The equation does not hold true, so (1,1) is not a solution.

2) For the ordered pair (0,2), if we substitute x=0 and y=2 into the equation, we get:
3(0) - 8 = -4(2)
0 - 8 = -8
-8 = -8
The equation holds true, so (0,2) is a solution.

3) For the ordered pair (0,-2), if we substitute x=0 and y=-2 into the equation, we get:
3(0) - 8 = -4(-2)
0 - 8 = 8
-8 = -8
The equation does not hold true, so (0,-2) is not a solution.

4) For the ordered pair (-1,1), if we substitute x=-1 and y=1 into the equation, we get:
3(-1) - 8 = -4(1)
-3 - 8 = -4
-11 = -4
The equation does not hold true, so (-1,1) is not a solution.

Therefore, the only ordered pair that is a solution to the equation 3x-8=-4y is (0,2).
