when x = 5 and y=4 the inequality 4-3(5)<-8 so : -11 < -8.....right

when x = 0 and y=-9 the inequality -9-3(0)<-8 so : -9 < -8.....right

Answer:

(5,4) and (0,-9)

Explanation:

We are given that an inequality


y-3x <-8

We have to find the ordered pair of solution of given inequality.

1.(5,4)

Substitute x=5 and y=4 then we get


4-3(5)=-11 < -8

It is a solution of given inequality because it satisfied the given inequality.

Hence, it is true.

2.(0,-9)

Substitute the values then we get


-9<-8

It is a solution of given inequality because it satisfied the given inequality.

Hence, it is true.

3.(-3,-2)

Substitute the values then we get


-2-(-3)(3)=-2+9=7 >-8

It is not true because it does not satisfied the given inequality.

4.(2,-1)


-1-3(2)=-1-6 =-7 > -8

It is not true because it does not satisfied the given inequality.

5.(1,-5)


-5-3(1)=-5-3=-8\\less -8

It is not true because it does not satisfied the given inequality.
