Answer:
(4,2)
(1,-1)
(-2,-4)

Step-by-step explanation:
The given equation is:
y = x-2
Therefore, to determine the correct points, we will substitute with each given x in the equation and get the corresponding y as follows:
1- For the first point (4,2), we have x = 2:
y = x - 2 = 4 - 2 = 2 .....> This point is correct
2- For the second point (1,-1), we have x = 1:
y = x - 2 = 1-2 = -1 ......> This point is correct
3- For the third point (-2,1), we have x=-2:
y = x - 2 = -2-2 = -4 .....> This point is incorrect
4- For the fourth point (-2,-4), we have x=-2:
y = x - 2 = -2-2 = -4 .......> This point is correct

Based on the above, we have three correct choices.

Hope this helps :)
