y+2=-4(x-0) Find the ordered pair where x= -2

`y+2=-4(x-0)`


We are given the value of x , x=-2


So plug in the value of x in the equation,


`y+2=-4(-2-0)`


`y+2=-4(-2)`


`y+2=8`


Now solve for y by transposing the constant 2 to the other side,


`y=8-2`


`y=6`


So the ordered pair for the equation with the given value of x is (-2,6)
