Question

Which ordered pair is a solution to the line whose equation is 2y=-3x-2

Answer 1

Answer:

The solution would be C. (2, -4)

Step-by-step explanation:  Equation: 2y = -3x - 2

1. (2, -3)

  2(-3) = -3(2) - 2

  -6 = -6 - 2

  -6 = -8   (Not a solution)

2. (-3, 2)

   2(2) = -3(-3) - 2

   4 = 9 - 2

   4 = 7   (Not a solution)

3. (2, -4)

   2(-4) = -3(2) - 2

   -8 = -6 - 2

   -8 = -8   (Solution)

4. (-4, 2)

   2(2) = -4(-4) - 2

   4 = 12 - 2

   4 = 10   (Not a solution)
