Question

5.05] Which ordered pair is a solution to the inequality y > x + 1?

(1, 5)

(0, -2)

(5, -1)

(2, 2)

Answer 1

Plug them back in:

for example:

When (1, 5)
y > x + 1
5 > 1 + 1
5 > 2

When (0, -2)
y > x + 1
-2 > 0 + 1
-2 > 1
False

When (5, -1)
y > x + 1
-1 > 5 + 1
-1 > 6
False

When (2, 2)
y > x + 1
2 > 2 + 1
2 > 3
False

Answer 2

When (1, 5)
y > x + 1
5 > 1 + 1
5 > 2
TRUE

Btw this is the only one that is true, therefore this ordered pair is a solution to the inequality y > x + 1
