Answer:

hello : (2 ; 9)

Explanation:

y > 3x+2......(1)

put : x and y in : (1)

1) for : (-2 ; -7) where x = - 2 and y = -7 so :-7 > 3(-2)+2

-7 > - 4 ...... false

2) for : (-1 ; -5) where x = - 1 and y = -5 so :-5> 3(-1)+2

-5 > -1 ...... false

3) for : (2 ; 8) where x = 2 and y = 8 so :8 > 3(2)+2

8 > 8 ...... false

4) for : (2 ; 9) where x = 2 and y = 9 so :9 > 3(2)+2

9 > 8 ...... true

the ordered pairs is a solution to this inequality y > 3x+2 : (2 ; 9)
