will fan & medal!!! PLEASE HELP ME! Determine which ordered pair is a solution of y=x^2-2. a. (-2, 6) b. (5, 21) c. (-1, -1) d. (-5, 24)

plug in the answer until you get somehting that works

OpenStudy (anonymous):

6 = (-2)^2 - 2 there is one of them

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that one would be -2, right? So no to that one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

only 3 more to go

OpenStudy (anonymous):

21=(5)^2-2 and this one would be -23, so no to this one too?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-1=(-1)^2-2 and this would equal to 1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

24=(-5)^2-2 and this would be -23

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Austin6i6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it would be -1, -1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you can check by putting it it because the answer would be -1 not 1
