c

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

Whichever point has a y coordinate that is NOT less than -3 This point is (3, 0)

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

So the answer is B

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no because it is a negative in the problem then with 2 negatives is a positive so it would be c

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

If you graph y < -3 on the plane, you'll see that the point (-2, -5) lies in the shaded region, we want a point that is NOT in the shaded region
