Which ordered pair is a solution to the inequality y > x + 5? (-3, 2) (0, -3) (3, 5) (2, 8)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

... plug in points again

OpenStudy (anonymous):

pm-ing me and asking for the answer won't help

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its (-3, 2)

OpenStudy (zehanz):

If you put x=-3 and y=2, you get 2 > 2. What do you think about that?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2 > -3 + 5 = 2 ? .. ok so 2 > 2 ?

OpenStudy (zehanz):

@ivandelgado try again, you math dawg!

Parth (parthkohli):

Let's try understanding what the question says. By \(y > x + 5\), we mean that \(y\) is greater than \(x\) by more than \(5\) numbers.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(3, 5)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

given (3,5) that means 5 > 3 + 5 = 8. nope

Parth (parthkohli):

So do you see any choice where \(y\) is greater than \(x\) by strictly more than \(5\) numbers?

OpenStudy (zehanz):

@ivandelgado: you're running out of options ;)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if you r having trouble write the problem and LABEL the ordered pair so u dont get consfused

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(0, -3) ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

of (0,3) which is Y?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(2, 8) no its

OpenStudy (anonymous):

correct
