Answer 2

Answer:

yes

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = - 3 and c = - 4 , then

y = - 3x - 4 ← is the equation of the line

To determine if (- 2, 2) lies on the line, substitute x = - 2 into the equation and if y equals 2 then the point lies on the line.

y = - 3(- 2) - 4 = 6 - 4 = 2 ← true

Then the line passes through (- 2, 2 )
