Question

Which of the following ordered pairs is not a solution to the inequality y <= -2x - 3?

(-4, 0)
(-1, 0)
(-2, -1)
(0, -4)

CAN SOMEONE JUST PLEASE ANSWER THIS

Answer 1

plug them in
lets try (-4,0) x=-4 and y=0
so
does y<-2x-3 make sense?
plug in x and y
0<-2(-4)-3
0<5
this makes sense to me, so (-4,0) is a solution
now try (-1,0)
x=-1 and y = 0
y<-2x-3
plug in x and y
-1<-2*0-3
-1<-3
does this make sense to you?

Answer 2

I did all that already

Answer 3

does -1<-3 make sense?

Answer 4

no

Answer 5

then (-1,0) is not a solution

Answer 6

So its B

Answer 7

correct

Answer 8

thanks once again
