A)(-1, 5), (0, 3)
B)(2, -10), (1, -5)
C)(-2, -10), (3, 0)
D)(6, 0), (-3, 0)

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Substituting the ordered pairs in the equation, we get:
A) $2(-1)-5=-7$ and $2(0)-3=-3$ (neither satisfy the equation)
B) $2(2)-(-10)=14$ and $2(1)-(-5)=7$ (neither satisfy the equation)
C) $2(-2)-(-10)=6$ and $2(3)-0=6$ (both satisfy the equation)
D) $2(6)-0=12$ and $2(-3)-0=-6$ (neither satisfy the equation)
