Question

Which ordered pair is a solution of the equation 4x - 2y = 16?
Select one:
a. (-5, -3)
b. (6, -4)
c. (-5, 3)
d. (6, 4)

Answer 1

you basically have to substitute the x and y points given into the equation to see if it makes sense , e.g. (-5,-3) , x = -5 and y=-3
now lets substitute into the equation : 4x-2y = 4(-5) - 2(-3) = -20 -(-6) = -20+6 = -14
so this is does not give us 16, so we can rule out this option
similarly , solve for the rest and you will get the answer

Answer 2

so D?

Answer 3

yup :)
