    Plug in until you get a false answer.

    A (2,-1)

    (2) - 2 (-1) = 4

    2+2=4

    -2 (2) + 4 (-1) = - 8

    -4-4=-8

    B (4,0)

    (4) - 2 (0) = 4

    4-0=4

    -2 (4) + 4 (0) = - 8

    -8+0=-8

    C (0,2)

    (0) - 2 (2) = 4

    0-4=4

    -4=4

    -2 (0) + 4 (2) = - 8

    0+8=-8

    8=-8

    D (6,1)

    (6) - 2 (1) = 4

    6-2=4

    -2 (6) + 4 (1) = - 8

    -12+4=-8

    The correct answer is C because (0,2) makes the equation untrue.
