Answer:

(0, 2) is a solution

Explanation:

The Solution of an Equation

Given the equation

-2x + y = -1

An ordered pair (a,b) is a solution of the equation if

-2a + b = -1

Let's test the point (0,2) to check if it's a solution of the equation:

Replacing x=0, y=-1

-2(0) + (-1) = -1

0 - 1 = -1

-1 = -1

Since the equation is satisfied, the pair (0,2) is a solution.

Answer: O Yes, (0, 2) is a solution
