To determine whether the point of the form (a, -a) always lies on a specific line, we can analyze the coordinates and the equation of the line. ### Step 1: Understand the point (a, -a) The point (a, -a) indicates that the x-coordinate is a and the y-coordinate is -a. ### Step 2: Write the relationship between x and y From the point (a, -a), we can express the relationship between x and y: - Let x = a ...
