Answer:

The possible coordinates of point A are (-8,-4) or (-8,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between two points is given by the formula

d = \sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^{2} + (y_{2}-y_{1})^{2}     }

For point A (x_{1} , y_{1}); x_{1}= -8 and y_{1} is unknown

For point B (x_{2} , y_{2}); (4,1) i.e x_{2}=4 and y_{2}=1

and d = 13

Putting the values into the equation,

13= \sqrt{[(4-(-8)]^{2} + (1-y_{1})^{2}     }\\13= \sqrt{[(4+8)]^{2} + (1-y_{1})^{2}     }\\13= \sqrt{12^{2} + (1-y_{1})^{2}     }\\13^{2} = 12^{2} + (1-y_{1})^{2}  \\169 = 144 +(1-y_{1})^{2}\\169-144 = (1-y_{1})^{2}\\25 = 1 -2y_{1} +y_{1}^{2} \\y_{1}^{2} -2y_{1}+1-25 =0\\y_{1}^{2} -2y_{1}-24 =0\\y_{1}^{2} -6y_{1} + 4y_{1} -24 =0 \\y_{1}(y_{1}-6) +4(y_{1} -6) = 0\\(y_{1}+4)(y_{1}-6) =0\\(y_{1}+4)=0 or (y_{1}-6) =0

y_{1}+4= 0 or y_{1}-6 =0

y_{1} =-4 or y_{1} = 6

Hence, the possible coordinates of point A are (-8,-4) or (-8,6)

Which ordered pair makes both inequalities true?
Tatiana [17]

The ordered pair which makes both inequalities true is: D. (3, 0).

<h3>How to determine ordered pair?</h3>

In Mathematics, an inequality can be used to show the relationship between two (2) or more integers and variables in an equation.

In order to determine ordered pair which makes both inequalities true, we would substitute the points into the inequalities as follows:

At (0, 0), we have:

y > -2x + 3  

0 > -2(0) + 3

0 > 3 (false).

y < x – 2

0 < 0 - 2

0 < -2 (false)

At (0, -1), we have:

y > -2x + 3  

-1 > -2(0) + 3

-1 > 3 (false).

y < x – 2

-1 < 0 - 2

-1 < -2 (false)

At (1, 1), we have:

y > -2x + 3  

1 > -2(1) + 3

1 > -1 (true).

y < x – 2

1 < 1 - 2

1 < -1 (false)

At (3, 0), we have:

y > -2x + 3  

0 > -2(3) + 3

0 > -3 (true).

y < x – 2

0 < 3 - 2

0 < 1 (true).
