Which ordered pairs are on the line 2x−3y=8 ? select each correct answer. (12,−73) (−2,4) (2,−43) (−5,−6)

The answer is (-5,-6)

Option D is correct.

(-5, -6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Ordered pair states that a pair of number that is locate a point on a coordinate plane i.,e (x, y)

Given the line:              .....[1]

Option A:

(12, -73)

Substitute the value of x = 12 and y = -73 in [1] we have;

2(12) - 3(-73) = 8

24 + 219 = 8

243 = 8        False.

Similarly for;

Option B

(-2, 4)

2(-2) - 3(4) = 8

-4 -12 = 8

-20 = 8        False.

Option C

(2, 43)

2(2) - 3(43) = 8

4-129= 8

-125= 8        False.

Option D

(-5, -6)

2(-5) - 3(-6) = 8

-10 +18 = 8

8 = 8      True.

Therefore, only (-5, -6) ordered pair is on the line 2x-3y = 8
