To prove that the point satisfy the equation or not, substitute x in the equation by the x-coordinate of the point

If the value of y = the y-coordinate of the point, then

The point satisfies the equation

If the value of y not = the y-coordinate of the point, the

The point does not satisfy the equation

The given point is (-9, 43)
