help pllleeaassee which coordinate pair is in the solution set for y<1-6x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(1, 0) (1, -1) (0, 1) (-1, 1)

sammixboo (sammixboo):

Let's plug in the values given in choice A in the equation given in the problem \(\rm \color{#20bd23}{y~<~1~-~6x}\) \(\rm \color{#20bd23}{0~<~1~-~6\times1}\) First multiply 6 x 1, so what is 6 x1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

6

sammixboo (sammixboo):

Correct, now we have \(\rm \color{#20bd23}{0~ < ~1 ~-~6}\) What is 1 - 6?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-5

sammixboo (sammixboo):

Does 0 = -5?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no

sammixboo (sammixboo):

Nope, so A is not our answer, now let's go to choice B

sammixboo (sammixboo):

\(\rm \color{#20bd23}{y ~< ~1~ - ~6x}\) Plug in the values \(\rm \color{#20bd23}{-1 ~< ~1~ - ~6\times1}\)

sammixboo (sammixboo):

We know 6 x 1 = 6, so we have \(\rm \color{#20bd23}{-1 ~< ~1~ - ~6}\)... What is 1 - 6?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-5 so that isn't right

sammixboo (sammixboo):

Yep, so Choice B is not our answer Onto Choice C

sammixboo (sammixboo):

\(\rm \color{#20bd23}{y ~< ~1~ - ~6x}\) Plug in the values \(\rm \color{#20bd23}{1 ~< ~1~ - ~6\times 0}\) First multiply 6 x 0, which equals 0, so we have \(\rm \color{#20bd23}{y ~< ~1~ - ~0}\), so what is 1 - 0?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1 so that's wrong
