Question

Which of these ordered pairs is a solution to the linear inequality y ≤ 4x - 3

Answer 1

(2,5) is a solution of the inequality

Explanation:

we have

`y\leq4x-3`

The solution of the inequality is the shaded area below the solid line
`y=4x-3`

Remember that if a ordered pair is a solution of the linear inequality, then the ordered pair must lie on the shaded region of the inequality

Let

A(-2,5),B(2,5),C(1,5),D(1,4)

Plot each point

The point B(2,5) lie on the shaded region

therefore

(2,5) is a solution of the inequality
