Answer:

Hello There. ☆~\---___`:•€`___---/~☆ The correct answer is C. Both (1,3) and (-2,-4).

To check whether (-2,-4) is a solution of the equation let's substitute x= -2 and y= -4 into the equation:

-7x+3y=2

-7*(-2)+3*(-4)=2

14-12=2

2=2

Do the same thing with (1,3)

-7x + 3y = 2

-7 * 1 + 3 * 3 = 2

-7 + 9 = 2

2 = 2.

Hope It Helps!~ ♡
