$(-2, 6)$

Well, we are simply going to try al three ordered pairs to see which works!

The first pair is $(-2, 6)$ . If we plug that in we get

$-2+(1/2)6=1$

$-2+3=1$

$1=1$ True!

Just because that one worked doesn't mean we shouldn't try the other two, lets do that now. The next pair is $(2, -6)$

$2+(1/2)(-6)=1$

$2+(-3)=1$

$-1=1$ False!

Last one! $(-2, -6)$

$-2+(1/2)(-6)=1$

$-2+(-3)=1$

$-5=1$ False!

So the correct answer is $(-2, 6)$ . Hope this helped!
