Answer

  1. (2, −1)

    f(x) = −4x + 4

    f(2) = -4\cdot 2 +1 = -7

    -1 > -7

    Therefore

    A is incorrect

  2. (2, 1)

    f(x) = −4x + 4

    f(2) = -4\cdot 2 +1 = -7

    1 >-7

    Therefore

    B is incorrect

  3. (0, 5)

    f(x) = −4x + 4

    f(2) = -4\times 0 +1 = 1

    5 > 1

    Therefore

    C is incorrect

  4. (−4, 0)

    f(x) = −4x + 4

    f(-4) = -4\times (-4) +1 = 17

    0 < 17

    Therefore

    D is correct
