Which point lies in the solution set for the following system of inequalities? x + 2y > 4 x − y < 6 (1, 1) (5, −2) (5, 1) (7, 0)

@Eyad

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can you solve this system ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

solving? you mean putting it into points?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

why'd you delete it? I was reading it!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Eyad

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I got 8 lmao. am I right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for real?!?!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah, that's what I got.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but what do I do now?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

6?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh, I thought you meant substitute 8 for 12! lol. that's still not the answer I'm looking for though.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so what now?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no! haha okay, no biggie.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1- multiply the second line by -1 so the sign will change...the system will become x + 2y > 4 -x + y > 6 now multiply your second equation by 2 to get the y canceled out x + 2y > 4 -2x + 2y >-6 can you solve for y now?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for x *

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I get 1.5 am I right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

By Subtracting ,You will get : 3x > 10 x > ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

not sure! I'm confused!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

|dw:1366706499128:dw| ================ Now substitute with 10/3 instead of x in -2x + 2y >-6 Can you solve now for y ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

solve for Y or X?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't know how to do it with fractions!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

For Y ..... -2(10/3) +2y >-6 -20/3 + 2y > -6 2y > -6 +20/3 2y > -38/3 y > -19 /3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Note ::: y > -19/3 = y > -6.3333.. x >10 >3 = x > 3.33333 Can you find a suitable order pair ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

when it comes to fractions, I have no Idea what I'm doing!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so.. what now?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it's C/

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Find the order pair which suit them

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I can't work with fraction lol/

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You are left with 2 choices C,B

OpenStudy (anonymous):

c! @Eyad

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you <3
