Answer:

a = -1
b = -9

Explanation:

when x = -2 put -2 for x in the equation:

a(3- (-2)) = -2*(-2) + b and then solve
a(3+2) = 4+b
5a = 4+b

then look at the numbers in the box and try for which number this equation will work. when you put a = -1 and b = -9 you will see it is equal on both sides because each side is -5
