Question

Which ordered pair makes both inequalities true?y > –2x 3y < x – 2?

Answer 1

Whatever your choices are, just substitute the x and y values to the equations. If they satisfy the inequality, then they are the solutions. For example, point (7, 1) satisfies the inequalities.

y > -2x
1 > -2(7)
1 > -14 (true)

3y < x – 2
3(1) < 7 - 2
3 < 5 (true)
