In order to determine which point is a solution of the given equation, just replace each pair of coordinates and verify the equation, just as follow:

the equation is:

6x + 3y = 15

A. (3,-2), the second coordinate is y = -2, and the first coordinate is x=3, replace it into the equation:

6(3) + 3(-2) = 18 - 6 = 12

B. (2,2), y = 2, x = 2

6(2) + 3(2) = 12 + 6 = 18

As you can notice, there is no point thatis a solution to the equation. Hence, neither of the given points is a solution to the given equation.

answer: Neither
