Answer:

(-3,-2) is not a point on the given line

Explanation:

expressing 2x - 5y in terms of y

we will move the 5y over so it becomes:

2x = 5y

divide by 5 to get y

y = 2/5x

to determine if the point (-3,-2) is on the line we can plug it into our equation

-2 = 2/5(-3)

-2 = -6/5

since this is not true, point (-3,-2) is not a point on our equation's graph
