Graph the system of inequalities. Then use your graph to identify the point that represents a solution to the system.

x 3
y ≤ 2x – 5

(4, –1)
(–1, 6)
(–3, –1)
(1, 11)

i believe tht the answer is B but not entirely sure and not going to put my hopes up high lol

anonymous · Answer

X has to be greater than 3. I think that is all you need to know for this problem

Of the coordinates given, there is only one with an x value higher than 3 (Which is 4)
Am i missing something or does that seem right?

anonymous · Answer

And when you plug 4 into 2x-5

It is still greater than -1, which would be the y value.

I think A is the answer to go with.

Does that make sense?

ooooohhhh so its C

anonymous · Answer

makes complete sense thank u

anonymous · Answer

I don't get it . . . 
Why is it C?

hmmm you're supposed to graph them, if I read correctly

jdoe0001 · Answer

and yes, you can always plug and test, but that's no the idea of this exercise

anonymous · Answer

because it said its still greater then -1and if 4 is x time 2 which gives u 8 subtracts 5 gives u 3
