Is the ordered pair (2,-5) a solution to the equation 4+3x = 2y?

Question

 The correct answer is that (2,-5) is a solution (yes), but i keep getting that it’s not a solution 

Answer 1

4 + 3x = 2y; (2, -5)

 

4 + 3(2) = 2(-5)

4 + 6 = -10

10 = -10

No it is not a solution.

 

If the point was (2, 5) we would get 10=10 

so (2,5) is a solution but (2,-5) is NOT.

 

Your book, teacher, or whatever is incorrect.
