Question

Find an ordered pair that is a solution to the inequality
y > x + 2?

Answer 1

there are infinite possibilities...

Answer 2

wait is it, (4, 3)

Answer 3

let's check
x = 4 and y = 3

plug them in the equation

3 > 4 + 2
3> 6

is this true?

Answer 4

is 3 greater than 6?

Answer 5

noo

Answer 6

therefore it isnt (4,3)

Answer 7

y > x + 2

y > 4 + 2 ... Replace x with 4 (since x = 4)

3 > 4 + 2 ... Replace y with 3 (since y = 3)

3 > 6

Now ask yourself: is that last inequality true. If so, then it's a solution. If not, then it's not a solution.

Answer 8

okay what about (-1,0)

Answer 9

Do the same thing, but use x = -1 and y = 0 this time

Answer 10

let's check again
x = -1 and y = 0

y> x+ 2
0> -1 + 2
0>-1

is it true?

Answer 11

uhh that should be 0>1

Answer 12

-1 + 2 is -1 lgbasallote?
