    (1,-1), and (2,1) are the two solutions.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    To answer this, we can just test out each of the options.

    Let's start with (4,2). Let x = 4, and put this into the equation:

    We get that y = 2x4 - 3 = 5. So since this doesn't equal 2, (4,2) is not a solution.

    We can then test out the rest of the options in a similar way, and we see that:

    2x (1) - 3 = - 1. So (1,-1) is a solution.

    2x (-1) - 3 = - 5, so (-1, 7) is NOT a solution.

    2x (2) - 3 = 1, so (2,1) is a solution.
