Question

Which ordered pairs are solutions to the inequality y - 3x < -8?

Answer 1

Answer:

Option B,C and E are solution to given inequality $y - 3x < -8$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to check which ordered pairs from given options satisfy the inequality $y - 3x < -8$

Ordered pairs are solutions to inequality if they satisfy the inequality

Checking each options by pitting values of x and y in given inequality

A ) (1, -5)

$-5-3(1)$

So, this ordered pair is not the solution of inequality as it doesn't satisfy the inequality.

B) (-3, - 2)

$-2-3(-3) < -8\\-2-9$

So, this ordered pair is solution of inequality as it satisfies the inequality.

C) (0, -9)

$-9-3(0)$

So, this ordered pair is solution of inequality as it satisfies the inequality.

D) (2, -1)

$-1-3(2)$

So, this ordered pair is not the solution of inequality as it doesn't satisfy the inequality.

E) (5, 4)​​​

$4-3(5)$

So, this ordered pair is solution of inequality as it satisfies the inequality.

So, Option B,C and E are solution to given inequality $y - 3x < -8$
