Answer

$$(3,4), \quad (0,-8), \quad (-4,-24 ).$$

Work Step by Step

Substitute the value of $x$ and solve for $ y $ to get the ordered pair $ (x,y)$ as follows: $$ y = 4(3) - 8 \Longrightarrow y=12-8 \Longrightarrow y =4 ,$$ $$ y = 4(0) - 8 \Longrightarrow y=0-8 \Longrightarrow y =-8 ,$$ $$ y = 4(-4) - 8 \Longrightarrow y=-16-8 \Longrightarrow y =-24,$$ Hence, we have the pairs $$(3,4), \quad (0,-8), \quad (-4,-24 ).$$
