Question

(04.05 MC)

Which of the following is a solution to this inequality?

`y < (2)/(3) x + 2`
A.(0,3)
B.(-3,1)
C.(3, 5)
D.(1,2)​

Answer 1

D

Explanation:

Plug in and see.

Check A: Lets plug in (0,3) into y<2/3 x+2.

3<2/3 (0)+2

3<2 is not true so not A

Check C: Lets plug in (3,5) into y<2/3 x+2.

5<2/3 (3)+2

5<2+2

5<4 is not true so not C

Check B: Lets plug in (-3,1) into y<2/3 x+2.

1<2/3 (-3)+2

1<0 is not true so not B

Check D: Lets plug in (1,2) into y<2/3 x+2.

2<2/3 (1)+2

2<2/3+2 is true so D
