aleksley [76]

Answer:

Number of one-dollar bills each child gets: 12 dollars

so 12(2)=24.

Each kid will get 12 dollars and there will be 1 dollar left over.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The system of inequality

$y>\dfrac{3}{2}x-1$

$y$

We need to choose correct option.

Option 1: (-5,2)

Put x=-5 and y=2

Equation 1 Equation 2

Put x=2 and y=2

Equation 1 Equation 2

$2>\dfrac{3}{2}(2)-1$ $2$

$2>2$ $2$

FALSE FALSE

Option 3: (5,2)

Put x=-5 and y=2

Equation 1 Equation 2

$2>\dfrac{3}{2}(5)-1$ $2$
