A (3,-2)
B (-2, 6)
C (-3,-2)
D (-2,-6)
We have to try them all out and see:
Let's try A (3,-2)
That means to substitute (3) for x and (-2) for y
in this equation and simplify:
2x - y = 8
2(3) - (-2) = 8
6 + 2 = 8
8 = 8
That's true so A (3,-2) is the correct answer.
But let's see why the others are not the answer:
-----
Let's try B (-2,6)
That means to substitute (-2) for x and (6) for y
in this equation and simplify:
2x - y = 8
2(-2) - (6) = 8
-4 - 6 = 8
-10 = 8
That's false so B (-2,6) is not the correct answer.
-----
Let's try C (-3,-2)
That means to substitute (-3) for x and (-2) for y
in this equation and simplify:
2x - y = 8
2(-3) - (-2) = 8
-6 + 2 = 8
-4 = 8
That's false so B (-3,-2) is not the correct answer.
-----
Let's try D (-2,-6)
That means to substitute (-2) for x and (-6) for y
in this equation and simplify:
2x - y = 8
2(-2) - (-6) = 8
-4 + 6 = 8
2 = 8
That's false so D (-2,-6) is not the correct answer.
