You didn't include the ordered pair.
...
Take the x value and input it into the equation and solve for y.
If y is the same as the one in the ordered pair, then that ordered pair is a solution.
...
For example, using the ordered pair (2,5)
4(2)-y=9
8-y=9
8-9=y
-1=y
Therefore, (2,5) is NOT a solution for that equation but (2,-1) is a solution.
