4 0

Answer:

(0, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

It's helpful if we think of slope in the context of rise over run.

Since the point (1, 1) lies on the line, because of the slope 2, if we subtract x by 1 to get to x = 0, then we'll be subtracting y by 2.

By that logic, the answer must be (0, -1).

Given are three married couples.

So, let us assume there are 3 men and 3 women

They are sitting in a row of 6 empty seats

There is a definite order constraint that each woman will sit left to her husband. The first woman gets 3 options to choose from 3 available seats. The second woman has two options left as already one seat is filled by the first woman. The last woman has one option left. So, it is $3*2*1$
