Answer 1

same thing tishabee the numbers are in (x,y) format. so for A. x= 1 and y= -5
B. x=1 y=5
and so on

Answer 2

I dont even know where Im plugging this in. Im staring at it and it makes no sense.

Answer 3

ok so your given these equations
y < -3x + 3
y < x + 2
Correct?

Answer 4

you simply plug in the numbers in the choice
For example A. which is x=1 and y= -5

Answer 5

after that if the numbers do or do not work then then that gives you ur answer

Answer 6

that makes
-5 < -3(1) + 3
-5 < (1) + 2
because x= 1 and y= -5
