Question

True or False: The point (1, -1) is a solution of 5y < 2x − 3

Answer 1

true

Answer 2

True.

Answer 3

thanks!

Answer 4

The point (1,-1) represents the values x = 1 and y = -1. Plug these values into the inequality

5y < 2x-3

5(-1) < 2(1)-3

-5 < 2-3

-5 < -1

Since this inequality is indeed true, this means that (1,-1) is a solution.

So the answer is true.

Answer 5

5(-1)<2(1)-3 is -5<-1. That is a true statement
