Answer: c

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line is

[tex]y+2=\frac{1}{3}(x-1)\\\\y+2=\frac{1}{3}x-\frac{1}{3}\\\\y=\frac{1}{3}x-\frac{7}{3}[/tex]

To determine which point lies on the line, we can substitute in the x coordinate and see if the equation gives the same y-coordinate.

  • If x = 2, then the equation of the line gives that y = -5/3.
  • If x = 4, then the equation of the line gives that y = -1.

Therefore, the answer is c.
