For an ordered pair to be a solution to y = -8, the y-coordinate of the ordered pair must be -8.

Let's check the following ordered pairs:

• (x, y) ==> (-8, 6).....No, this is not a solution to y = -8 because the y-coordinate is 6

• (x, y) ==> (7, 0)..... No, this is not a solution to y = -8 because the y-coordinate is 0

• (x, y) ==> ,(-9 , -8).... Yes, this is a solution to y = -8, because the y-coordinate, is -8

• (x, y) ==> ,(4, -8).... Yes, this is a solution to y = -8, because the y-coordinate is -8

ANSWER:

(-9, -8)

(4, -8)
