Question

The point (-2, -5) is on the line given by which equation below?

A. y=2x
B. y=-3x
C. y=x+3
D. y=x-3​

Answer 1

D

Explanation:

Substitute x = - 2 into the right side of each equation and if the result is y = - 5 then the point is on that equation.

A

y = 2x = 2(- 2) = - 4 ≠ - 5

B

y = - 3x = - 3(- 2) = 6 ≠ - 5

C

y = x + 3 = - 2 + 3 = 1 ≠ - 5

D

y = x - 3 = - 2 - 3 = -5 ← (- 2, 5) is on this equation → D

Answer 2

D i could be wrong tho.
