Choose the point which is a solution to the system of inequalities:
y

Question

Choose the point which is a solution to the system of inequalities:
y < -2x + 3
   -
y <   x - 4 (2 points)
A) (4, -6) 
B) (-4, 6) 
C) (4, 6) 
D) (-4, -6)

Take each point and plug it into both inequalities. The point that makes both inequalities true is the solution to the system of inequalities

I explained how to do it. Now you need to try. If you have questions after trying, then ask.

i got B is that correct?

mathstudent55 · Answer

B does not work for the second inequality.

mathstudent55 · Answer

y < -2x + 3                      y <  x - 4
B. (-4, 6)          6 < -2*(-4) + 3                 6 < -4 - 4
                        6 < 8 + 3                         6 < -8
                        6 < 11
                        True                                 False
Since choice B does not make the second inequality true, it is not a solution to the system of equations.
