Answer:

Option B is the answer

Explanation:

To find the ordered pair which lies on the graph f(x) = -2x²

We will put the value of ordered pair in the function

If it satisfy the function then par will lie of the graph.

f(x) = -2x²

Option (A) (1,-4)

f(1) = -2 (1)² = -2 ≠ (-4)

Pair does not lie on the graph

Option B. (1, -2)

f(1) = -2

Pair will lie on the graph

Option C. ( 1, 4 )

f(x) = -2 ≠ 4 so pair will not lie in the graph

Option B is the answer
