1. **State the problem:**
We are given the linear equation $$2x - 3y + 24 = 0$$ and several points. We want to check which points lie on this line.
2. **Formula and rule:**
A point $ (x, y) $ lies on the line if substituting $x$ and $y$ into the equation satisfies it, i.e.,
$$2x - 3y + 24 = 0$$
3. **Check each point:**
- For $(-6, 4)$:
$$2(-6) - 3(4) + 24 = -12 - 12 + 24 = 0$$
Point lies on the line.
- For $(6, 4)$:
$$2(6) - 3(4) + 24 = 12 - 12 + 24 = 24 \neq 0$$
Point does not lie on the line.
- For $(0, 8)$:
$$2(0) - 3(8) + 24 = 0 - 24 + 24 = 0$$
Point lies on the line.
- For $(8, 0)$:
$$2(8) - 3(0) + 24 = 16 + 0 + 24 = 40 \neq 0$$
Point does not lie on the line.
- For $(0, -8)$:
$$2(0) - 3(-8) + 24 = 0 + 24 + 24 = 48 \neq 0$$
Point does not lie on the line.
**Final answer:** Points $(-6,4)$ and $(0,8)$ lie on the line $2x - 3y + 24 = 0$.
