Question

Consider the system of inequalities:
y>1/2x - 1
y <= -2x
Which one of the following coordinates is a solution to the system?
Select one:
a. (0, 0)
b. (-4, -4)
c. (6, 6)
d. (-7, 3)

Answer 1

Let's see. I'll try by putting in each point into each inequality and see if they are satisfied.
For (6,6),
6>(1/2)*6-1=2 6>2 so good.
6\(\le\)-2(6)=-12 but 6 is not less than nor equal to 12, so no good.
(6,6) is NOT a choice.
You can go through the same process for the other choices and see which one works.
