Which of the following ordered pairs is a solution to the inequality y less than or greater to -2x + 10?

Substitute them in and see if you get a true statement.

i did and i got a true statement for more than one of them

OpenStudy (compassionate):

y <-2 + 10 This is more of an intellectual deduction and trial-and-error process. Take your corresponding x and y points (x, y) and plug them into the inequality. If the statement is true, for both x and y, then your statement is correct. For example: (1, 2) y > x + 2 Plug in your points 2 > 1 + 2 2 > 3 This is false, we know that 2 is not greater-than 3, and therefore does not satisfy the solution.
