Question

Which points are solutions to the linear inequality y < 0.5x + 2? Select three options.

Answer 1

Answer:

A, C, E

Step-by-step explanation:

substitute for x in each option and check if the value of y satisfies the inequality

Answer 2

Answer:

Option A, C and E

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find points which are solution to the linear inequality ( y<0.5x + 2)

(a) For (-3, -2)

-2 < (0.5 × 3 + 2)

-2 < 1.5 + 2

-2 < 3.5

True, It's a solution.

(b) For (-2, 1)

1 < 0.5 × (-2) + 2

1 < -1 + 2

1 < 1

False, it's not a solution

(c) For (-1, -2)

-2 < 0.5 (-1) +2

-2 < -1 + 2

-2 < 1

True, It's a solution.

(d) For (-1, 2)

2 < 0.5 (-1) + 2

2 < -1 + 2

2 < 1

False, It's not the solution.

(e) For (1, -2)

-2 < 0.5 (1) + 2

-2 < 2.5

True It's a solution

Therefore, Option A, C and E are the solutions.
