Show that the points A (1,2), B(-1, -16) and C (0, -7) lie on the graph of the linear equation y=9x -7.

Explanation

To show that the points A(1, 2), B(-1, -16), and C(0, -7) lie on the graph of the linear equation \( y = 9x - 7 \), we will substitute the x-coordinates of each point into the equation and check if the resulting y-value matches the y-coordinate of the respective point.

### Step-by-Step Solution:

1. **Check Point A (1, 2)**:
- Substitute \( x = 1 \) into the equation \( y = 9x - 7 \):
\[
y = 9(1) - 7 = 9 - 7 = 2
