You can put this solution on YOUR website! Starting with y - 6 = 2(x + 4)
Arrange it to fit the linear equation format of y=mx+b
...
y - 6 = 2(x+4)
Distribute the 2
y - 6 = 2x + 8
Isolate y
y = 2x + 8 + 6
y = 2x + 14
...
Assign one of the coordinates to the equation and solve for the other.
..
y = 2(-4) + 14 = -8 + 14 = 6: (-4,6) This matches one of the options
y = 2(4) + 14 = 8 + 14 = 22 : (4,22) No match
y = 2(2) + 14 = 4 + 14 = 18 : (2,18) No match
