You can put this solution on YOUR website!
I'm assuming (8,0) is on the line?
If so, using the point-slope form of a line,
y-0=3%28x-8%29
y=3x-24
So then plug in the values and see it they're on the line,
I'll do one, you do the rest.
3=3%2811%29-24
3=33-24
3=9
False, so (11,3) is not on the line.
Do the others the same way.
If both sides are equal, then it is on the line.
