    Replace x and y of the equation with the x - and y-coordinates, respectively, of each pair in the choices. If the equation becomes a true statement, then that ordered pair is on the line.

    A. (4, 2)

    y - 0.75 = 1.25 (x - 3)

    2 - 0.75 = 1.25 (4 - 3)

    1.25 = 1.25 (1)

    1.25 = 1.25

    Since 1.25 = 1.25 is a true statement, the ordered pair (4, 2) is on the line.

    B. (1, 1.75)

    y - 0.75 = 1.25 (x - 3)

    1.75 - 0.75 = 1.25 (1 - 3)

    1 = 1.25 (-2)

    1 = - 2.5

    Since 1 = - 2.5 is a false statement, the ordered pair (1, 1.75) is not on the line.

    Now try the same process for options C and D.
