Answer: False. So (-2, 3) is not a solution of the inequality

Explanation:

Input the given coordinate (-2, 3) into the linear equation to see if it makes a TRUE statement.


y\leq -(5)/(2)x-4\\\\\\3\leq -(5)/(2)(-2)-4\\\\\\3\leq (10)/(2)-4\\\\\\3\leq 5-4\\\\\\3\leq 1\quad \rightarrow \quad \text{This statement is False}
