FAN AND MEDAL OF COURSE PLEASE I JUST NEED HELP Which of the following points lie in the solution set to the following system of inequalities? y < -3x + 3 y < x + 2 (1, -5) (1, 5) (5, 1) (-1, 5)

OpenStudy (texaschic101):

(1,-5)...x = 1 and y = -5 y < -3x + 3 sub in your points -5 < -3(1) + 3 -5 < -3 + 3 -5 < 0 (true) y < x + 2 -5 < 1 + 2 -5 < 3 (true) Thats basically how you do it. You sub in your set of points in BOTH inequalities, and if it comes out true in both of them, it is a solution. I didn't check the other ones, so I do not know if there is more then 1 answer. But (1,-5) is a solution
