$(0, 2), (1, 6), (- 2, - 6) are solutions$ $(0,2),(1,6),(-2,-6)" are solutions"$

Explanation:

Select values for x and substitute them into the equation. This gives the corresponding value for y and hence an ordered pair.
Here are some examples.

$x = 0 \to y = (4 \times 0) + 2 = 2 \to (0, 2) is a solution$ $x=0toy=(4xx0)+2=2to(0,2)" is a solution"$

$x = 1 \to y = (4 \times 1) + 2 = 6 \to (1, 6) is also a solution$ $x=1toy=(4xx1)+2=6to(1,6)" is also a solution"$

$x = - 2 \to (4 \times - 2) + 2 = - 6 \to (- 2, - 6) is a solution$ $x=-2to(4xx-2)+2=-6to(-2,-6)" is a solution"$
