Is the answer D?

anonymous · Answer

I don't see where the inequality is. Can you re-write the inequality with all of the relevant symbols?

anonymous · Answer

@Kuromeru  The inequality is y $$y \ge 4x-5$$

anonymous · Answer

Ok, then in this case, you just have to plug in each ordered pair into the equation and check to see if the statement is true. (x,y) is what a general point looks like, so the x value in an equation is the first point and the y value is the second.

anonymous · Answer

And yes, the answer is D because if you plug in that value you get
$$1\ge4(1)-5$$
which simplifies to reveal a true statement that 1 is greater than or equal to -1
