b) (-1, 5)
c) (-4, 14)
d) (2, -10)

caroline chose a as her answer. why is she incorrect?
a) (1, -6) is a solution because it creates a true statement when substituted into the equation

b) (1, -6) is a solution because y = -6

c) (1, -6) is a solution because it creates a false statement when substituted into the equation

d) (1, -6) is a solution because it is near the y-intercept of -2.
