teacher gave me homework and she is horrible at explaining Algebra Inequalities in Two Variables. someone help me with this and how to do it "Which point is NOT a solution of y < -3?" A. (1, -4) B. (3, 0) C. (-2, -5) D. (8, -7)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well points are typically ordered in (x,y), so knowing that, we look at the y values (the right side) and see which is greater than -3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you have A -4, B 0, C -5, D -7, of the following which is NOT a solution, so which is GREATER than -3?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh alright i see what you mean

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-4,-5,-7 i think? sorry school where i go to really dont teach us

OpenStudy (ybarrap):

Make sense?

OpenStudy (ybarrap):

Only one value of y is NOT less than -3.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah that helps a lot

OpenStudy (ybarrap):

Can you tell me which value of y is NOT less than -3 based on the drawing?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-7,-4,-5 since its away from the 0?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh whoops wrong sorry misread

OpenStudy (ybarrap):
