<span>A.(0,8)
B.(-1,8)
C.(1.5,10)
D.(2,16)
Simply substitute the value of x to get the value of y.
y = 8x
(0,8) y = 8(0) ; y = 0
(-1,8) y = 8(-1) ; y = -8
(1.5,10) y = 8(1.5) ; y = 12
(2,16) y = 8(2) ; y = 16
The correct ordered pair is D. (2,16)</span>
I think
This is your typical algebra question where you are looking for an unknown value given some information. The information can be set up as:
8 - x = 4*(x +3)
Distribute the 4:
8 - x = 4x + 12
Rearrange to get variables on one side:
8 - 12 = 4x + x
Simplifiy:
-4 = 5x
Isolate the variable:
-4/5 = x
5+7 = 12
60/12 = 5
5 x 5 = 25
5 x 7 = 35

(-4-(-7)) / (1-7) = (3) / (-6) = -1/2 = slope
