Answer:

No order Pair fall on the graph

Explanation:

The given Function is


f(x)= -2x -1 ...............(i)

Now to see whether these ordered pairs Lay on it we will put each ordered pair in the equation (i)


Lets take first ordered pair (1,1)

here x = 1

putting it in (i) gives


f(1)= -2(1) -1


f(1)= -3

this is not equal to 1 so the order pair (1,1) does not fall on function
f(x)= -2x -1

Lets take second ordered pair (-1,-4)

here x = -1

putting it in (i) gives


f(-1)= -2(-1) -1


f(-1)= 1

this is not equal to -4 so the order pair (-1,4) does not fall on function
f(x)= -2x -1


Lets take third ordered pair (-2,-1/8)

here x = -2

putting it in (i) gives


f(-2)= -2(-2) -1


f(-2)= 3

this is not equal to -1/8 so the order pair (-2,1/8) does not fall on function
f(x)= -2x -1


Lets take fourth ordered pair (0,-1/2)

here x = 0

putting it in (i) gives


f(0)= -2(0) -1


f(0)= -1

this is not equal to -1/2 so the order pair (0,-1/2) does not fall on function
f(x)= -2x -1
