Which point lies in the solution set for the following system of inequalities? y < x + 4 y < -2x + 2 (2, 3) (0, -5) (0, 5) (1, 0)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Test each point provided (x, y) and plug it into the inequalities. See which point when substituted gives you TRUE for both inequalities.

OpenStudy (ivettef365):

just substitute the points on the inequalities to see which one is true.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't know how to do that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y < x + 4 y < -2x + 2 POINT: (2, 3) -- (x,y) 3 < 2 + 4 3 < -2(2) + 2

OpenStudy (ivettef365):

example points (0,5) x = 0 and y = 5 so let see if it works y < x + 4 so 5 < 0 + 4 so 5 < 4 not true it needs to work on both inequalities

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got 3<6 3<-2 the first ones right but not the second one

OpenStudy (ivettef365):

keep trying

OpenStudy (ivettef365):

it needs to be true on both

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its D

OpenStudy (ivettef365):

what did you get for D ??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ugh nevermind :(

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its B 0<6 -5<-2

OpenStudy (ivettef365):

good

OpenStudy (ivettef365):

It is B, but it looks like this -5 < 4 -5< 2
