Imagine you want to put a pink flamingo lawn ornament in your backyard. You want to avoid placing it directly over the water line in case you need to excavate the line for repairs in the future. Could you place it at the point (-4,-10)?
I believe you could because wouldn't it be at 9.33 Answer by ankor@dixie-net.com(22740) (Show Source):

Imagine you want to put a pink flamingo lawn ornament in your backyard.
You want to avoid placing it directly over the water line in case you need to
excavate the line for repairs in the future.
Could you place it at the point (-4,-10)?
:
Check to see when you have x = -4, if y = -10
y = (-4) - 12
y = + - 12
y = -9.33
:
You are right that it would not be over the water line, but it it would be -9.33 which is pretty close to -10
