Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
To determine if a point lies on the curve, substitute the x- coordinate into the equation. If the value obtained is equal to the y- coordinate then the point lies on the curve, that is
A
y = ([tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] )² = [tex]\frac{9}{4}[/tex] ≠ [tex]\frac{9}{2}[/tex] ← not on line
B
y = (- 1)² = 1 ← lies on line
C
y = 4² = 16 ← lies on line
D
y = ([tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] )² = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] ← lies on line
