To determine which coordinate is not a solution for the equation y = -1/4x - 3, we substitute the x and y values of each coordinate into the equation and see if it is satisfied.
For (-2, -4):
y = -1/4x - 3
-4 = -1/4(-2) - 3
-4 = 1/2 - 3
-4 = -2.5
The equation is not satisfied when we substitute the x and y values of (-2, -4) into the equation, so (-2,-4) is not a solution for the equation.
For (0, -3):
y = -1/4x - 3
-3 = -1/4(0) - 3
-3 = 0 - 3
-3 = -3
The equation is satisfied when we substitute the x and y values of (0, -3) into the equation, so (0,-3) is a solution for the equation.
Therefore, the coordinate that is not a solution for the equation is (-2,-4).
The graphs represents y=-1/4x-3 which coordinate is not a solution for the equation. (-2,-4) or (0,-3)
