Question

[5.05] Which of the following ordered pairs is a solution to the inequality y  −2x + 8?   (0, −4)   (5, −1)   (7, 0)   (9, 1)

anonymous · Answer

(0,-4) is an ordered pair. 0 is the x value and -4 is the y value.
Replace the x in the inequality with the 0 value and the y with the -4 value.
Look at the inequality that is now just numbers.
If it is true, (0,-4) is a solution, if the inequality is not true (0,-4) is not a solution.
