Question

Which of the following points is a solution of y > |x| + 5?



(0, 5)

(1, 7)

(7, 1)

Answer 1

We have
$$
y > |x|+5
$$
So let's check each option:

\(1^{st}\) let's check (0,5):
$$
5 > |0|+5=5\\
$$
Is \(5 > 5\)?

Next, let's check (1, 7):
$$
7 > |1|+5=6\\
$$
Is \(7 > 6\)?

Finally, let's check (7, 1):
$$
1 > |7|+5=12\\
$$
Is \(1 > 12\)?
