anonymous · Answer

ok so in order to solve this you must substitute

anonymous · Answer

we know that when we talk about points the order is (x, y)

anonymous · Answer

so therefore answers like a. (2, 1) they are telling us what to plug in

anonymous · Answer

so for instance plug in a and you get :    (1)<2(2)-3 and 2(2)+1>2

anonymous · Answer

find the point that solves them both

anonymous · Answer

you have on point, you plug it into both inequalities yes

anonymous · Answer

the point contains a value of x and y so the point has 2 numbers but it is just one point,   keep plugging in the answers till you find a working one

anonymous · Answer

thank you and no problem
