Answer:

We conclude that the point (-3, 0) does NOT satisfy the inequality.

Explanation:

Given the expression


y\ge \:\left|x\right|+3\:\:\:\:

putting x = -3 and y = 6


6\ge \left|-3\right|+3\:\:\:

Apply absolute rule: |-a| = a


6\ge \:6

TRUE

Thus, the point (-3, 6) satisfies the inequality.

Given the expression


y\ge \:\left|x\right|+3\:\:\:\:

putting x = 0 and y = 4


4\ge \left|0\right|+3

Apply absolute rule: |a| = a, a≥0


4\ge \:3

TRUE

Thus, the point (0, 4) satisfies the inequality.

Given the expression


y\ge \:\left|x\right|+3\:\:\:\:

putting x = -3 and y = 0


0\ge \left|-3\right|+3\:\:\:

Apply absolute rule: |-a| = a


0\ge \:6

FALSE

Thus, the point (-3, 0) does NOT satisfy the inequality.

Therefore, we conclude that the point (-3, 0) does NOT satisfy the inequality.
