Question

Select the point that lies within the solution to the graph of y > –3x + 4?

(–1, 7)

(0, 3)

(1, 3)

(3, –6)

Answer 1

so you're given two values in each subset, an x and y, plug in both numbers to see if the equation is true. i'll show you what i mean with the first one

7 > -3(-1) + 4, now just solve the equation

Answer 2

7>3+4?

Answer 3

exactly and when you add 3 and 4 together you get 7 so it's saying 7 > 7, is that true?

Answer 4

nope...3>-3(0)+4=3>4... not true either

Answer 5

isnt this > greater than?

Answer 6

yeah! it's true :)

Answer 7

sorry i looked at it wrong, i tried to delete it as soon as i posted it haha, you were right :)

Answer 8

lol i was like hmmmm im not good in math but im pretty sure > means greater than

Answer 9

my baaad :D

Answer 10

Checking (-1,7)

y > –3x + 4

7 > –3(-1) + 4

7 > 3 + 4

7 > 7 ... false

----------------------------

Checking (0,3)

y > –3x + 4

3 > –3(0) + 4

3 > 0 + 4

3 > 4 ... false

----------------------------

Checking (1,3)

y > –3x + 4

3 > –3(1) + 4

3 > -3 + 4

3 > 1 ... true

----------------------------

Checking (3,-6)

y > –3x + 4

-6 > –3(3) + 4

-6 > -9 + 4

-6 > -5 ... false

----------------------------


So the answer is choice C

Answer 11

thanks!
