Question

Which point is on the line described by the equation below?

4x - 3y = -4
0 (4,4)
(2,4)
(2,-4)
O (4,-4)

Answer 1

Answer: (2,4)

Explanation:

For us to solve this, we put the value of x and y and check if it's equal to -4.

a. (4,4)

4x - 3y = -4

= 4(4) -3(4)

= 16 - 12

= 4

b. (2,4)

4x - 3y = -4

= 4(2) -3(4)

= 8 - 12

= -4

c. (2,-4)

4x - 3y = -4

= 4(2) -3(-4)

= 8 + 12

= 20

d. (4,-4)

4x - 3y = -4

= 4(4) -3(-4)

= 16 + 12

= 28

Therefore, the answer is (2,4)
