Answer:

For
y=3x

(-10,-30)

For
y=-9x+4

(10,-86)

Step-by-step explanation:

If a pair of points satisfies a given equation, then it can be concluded that the pair of points is a solution of the equation. So in order to determine which ordered pair is a solution of the equation provided, we need to evaluate every one them into the equation:


y(x)=3x

For (-2,-9)


y(-2)=3(-2)=-6\\eq -9

This ordered pair doesn't satisfy the equation.

For (-8,-18)


y(-8)=3(-8)=-24\\eq -18

This ordered pair doesn't satisfy the equation.

For (-8,-3)


y(-8)=3(-8)=-24\\eq -3

This ordered pair doesn't satisfy the equation.

For (-10,-30)


y(-10)=3(-10)=-30

This ordered pair satisfies the equation. Therefore is a solition of the equation
y(x)=3x


y(x)=-9x+4

For (10,-86)


y(10)=-9(10)+4=-90+4=-86

This ordered pair satisfies the equation. Therefore is a solition of the equation
y(x)=-9x+4

For (-4,-58)


y(-4)=-9(-4)+4=36+4=40 \\eq -58

This ordered pair doesn't satisfy the equation.

For (6,-41)


y(6)=-9(6)+4=-54+4=-50\\eq -41

This ordered pair doesn't satisfy the equation.

For (-6,57)


y(-6)=-9(-6)+4=54+4=58\\eq 57

This ordered pair doesn't satisfy the equation.
