No, the point (0, 3) is not a solution to the equation y = -2x - 1 as substituting the values into the equation does not satisfy the equality.

To check whether the point (0, 3) is a solution to the equation y = -2x - 1, substitute the values of x and y into the equation:

y = -2x - 1

For the point (0, 3), x = 0 and y = 3:

3 = -2(0) - 1

Simplify the expression:

3 = -1

This equation is not true, as the left side does not equal the right side. Therefore, (0, 3) is not a solution to the equation y = -2x - 1.

The probable question may be:

Is (0,3) a solution of y=-2x-1.
