I think the answer is x=10
Well just looking at the points itself, the point (0,2) is the y intercept.. and the only answer choice you have with 2 as the y intercept is C.

Equation
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
y = -3x - 9
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Option 1
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If I substitute x = -9, I should get y = 0
When x = -9
y = -3 (-9) - 9
= 18 (I did not get 0, wrong)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Option 2
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If I substitute x = -3, I should get y = 0
y = -3(-3) - 9
y = 9 - 9
y = 0 (Yes, I got 0, correct)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Option 3
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If I substitute x = 0, I should get y = -3
y = -3 (0) - 9
y = 0 - 9
y = -9 (I did not get -3, wrong)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Option 4
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If I substitute x = 0, I should get y = -9
y = -3 (0) - 9
y = 0 - 9
y = -9 (Yes, I got -9, correct)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: (-3, 0) and (0, 9) are ordered pairs of the equation (Answer B, D)
