Answer:

It is a solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]2x - \frac{y}{2} = -8[/tex]

Required

Determine if [tex](3,28)[/tex] is a solution

[tex](3,28)[/tex] implies that:

[tex]x = 3[/tex]

[tex]y = 28[/tex]

To check if it is a solution, we simply substitute values for x and y in the given equation;

[tex]2x - \frac{y}{2} = -8[/tex]

[tex]2(3) - \frac{28}{2} = -8[/tex]

[tex]6 - 14= -8[/tex]

[tex]-8= -8[/tex]

Since both sides of the equation are equal; then, Yes, it is a solution
