Question

Which point lies in the solution set for the following system of inequalities?
y > x + 4
y > -x + 2

Answer 1

I'm assuming you have a list of possible answers?

Answer 2

(1, 6)

(-2, -1)

(-3, 2)

(1, 1)

Answer 3

let's check if D is the answer

Answer 4

so plug (1,1) into the first inequality to get

y > x + 4

1 > 1 + 4

1 > 5

but that's false, so (1,1) is NOT a solution meaning that D is NOT the answer

Answer 5

the point has to make both inequalities true

Answer 6
