Replace x with -4 and y with -10 in the given equation and then simplify.\r

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "I received your e-mail. Yes, I also got no. Like I said, they give you a point. Each point has a value for x and y as you know. The question would like to know if the given point makes the equation true.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "After replacing x and y with their value and simplifying the equation, we learn that the given point (-4, -10) does not get the same answer on both sides of the equation.\r
