Question

Which of the following points satisfies the inequality 2x - 3y < 1?

Answer 1

points...?

Answer 2

(-2,1), (1/2,0), (2-1)

Answer 3

so if the point is(-2,1) then x=-2 and y=1
put these values in your inequality and find out if it satisfies or not.
for e.g., if we take (-2,1)
2x-3y<1
Put x=-2 and y=1
2*(-2)-3*1<1
-4-3<1
-7<1
we know that -7 is less than 1.
so, it satisfies the inequality.
like this check for the other two points

Answer 4

i just need an answer though, because i'm being timed

Answer 5

just check for other two points.
the points which satisfies your inequality will be your answer.
for e.g., (-2,1) satisfies the inequality, so (-2,1) is your answer.
just check If you have multiple options correct.

Answer 6

nvm.

Answer 7

i get it thanks
