Which ordered pairs are on the line with the equation y+3.5=0.75(x-2)? I will mark brainliest. Thanks!

Hey! So all you have to do for this question is input the x- and y- values into the equation and simplify: point 1: (1, 1.75) y + 3.5 = 0.75 (x - 2) (1.75) + 3.5 = 0.75 ((1) - 2) 5.25 = 0.75 (-1) 5.25 = -0.75 --> since these are not equation, (1, 1.75) is not correct.
Point 2: (-4, -8) y + 3.5 = 0.75 (x - 2) (-8) + 3.5 = 0.75 ((-4) - 2) -4.5 = 0.75 (-6) -4.5 = -4.5 --> this is correct because both sides are equal
Point 3: (7, 5.5) y + 3.5 = 0.75(x - 2) (5.5) + 3.5 = 0.75((7) - 2) 9 = 0.75(5) 9 = 3.75 --> not equal so not correct
Point 4: (4, -2) y + 3.5 = 0.75(x - 2) (-2) + 3.5 = 0.75(4 - 2) 1.5 = 0.75( 2) 1.5 = 1.5 --> equal so correct
So (-4, -8) and (4, -2) are your answers! Hope this helped :)
