Answer 2

If a point is a solution to a system of inequalities, then it must make all of the inequalities true (when you plug in the x,y values)

Answer 3

What do you get when you plug (x,y) = (7,1) into the first inequality?

Answer 4

7 - 1 > 3

Answer 5

6 > 3 @jim_thompson5910

Answer 6

so that inequality is true

what about the second inequality?

Answer 7

9 < 6 is the second inequality... untrue

Answer 8

@jim_thompson5910

Answer 9

because it does not make both inequalities true, this means (7,1) is not a solution to the entire system

Answer 10

Hopefully you see how this all works?

Answer 11

gotcha! so the only possible answer is D. Thank you @jim_thompson5910

Answer 12
