Question

The graph of which of the following equations contains the point (0,-3)?

Answer 1

Hi there! “x” is 0 and “y” is -3. To find the solution that works, let’s test them out. 0 + (-3) is -3, not 3. A is out. 0 - (-3) is 3, not -3, because when subtracting a negative, you actually add. B is out. 0 - (-3) is 3 and it does satisfy the solution. We should check D, but it is basically repeating the same thing with B, except that there is no symbol in front of the “x”. D is out. The only answer that works is C. The answer is C.
