Have you considered either building the equation with the two-point form or perhaps you could substitute the points and see which ones work?

Show your work!

I have, I figured out that it does equal zero but the equations they show are confusing

do we seriously have to promise medal and fan this is ridiculous

No, the chats are a wasteland.  No  one there cares about helping anyone.  Sorry about that.  Just post your question AND your work and you should get help quickly in most cases.

How are the equation confusing?

A: y - 1 = 0

(-2, 1) and (2, 1)

Try y = 1

A: 1 - 1 = 0 -- That looks good.
