Which of the following is a solution of y + x < -5? (-4, -2) (-3, -2) (-2, -3) (-1, -3)

OpenStudy (inkyvoyd):

Substitute them in.

OpenStudy (inkyvoyd):

Remember, they are written in the form (x,y)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

second one

Parth (parthkohli):

No, is -3 - 2 < -5?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thats the second one

OpenStudy (inkyvoyd):

@hithere , is -3 - 2 less than or greater than -5?

Parth (parthkohli):

Oh wait, is -2 - (-3) < -5?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh i c mine would be =

OpenStudy (inkyvoyd):

Yes.

OpenStudy (inkyvoyd):

You want less than, @hithere

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the third one

Parth (parthkohli):

Either ways, answer is not second.

Parth (parthkohli):

No again, is -3 - 2 < -5 ?

OpenStudy (inkyvoyd):

@hithere , can you do the third one for us?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-3,2 aint there

OpenStudy (inkyvoyd):

y + x < -5 (-2,-3) (-2)+(-3)?-5 -2-3?-5

Parth (parthkohli):

(x,y) where y + x < -5

OpenStudy (inkyvoyd):

question mark means we aren't sure of the relation; we confirm after we finish simplifying.

Parth (parthkohli):

Substitute all values in all options and see which one satisfies the statement.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the first one

Parth (parthkohli):

Explain how you got the answer, please.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-6<-5

Parth (parthkohli):

Right.

Parth (parthkohli):

But you wouldn't get three attempts on one question on your test. Okay?
