Question

Which ordered pairs are solutions to the inequality y−3x<−4?

Select each correct answer.




(1, −1)

(4, −2)

(5, 1)

(0, −3)

(−3, 0)

Answer 1

Answer: It is (5,1)

Explanation:

Answer 2

(4, −2)

(5, 1)

Explanation:

We need to place the values and check if they fit in the inequality:

(1, −1) → (-1) -3(1) < -4 → -1 -3 < -4 → -4 < -4 Wrong

(4, −2) → -2 -3(4) < -4 → -14 < -4 Correct

(5, 1) → 1 -3(5) < -4 → -14 < -4 Correct

(0, −3) → -3 -3(0) < -4 → -3 < -4 Wrong

(−3, 0) → 0 -3(-3) < -4 → 0+9 < -4 → 9 < -4 Wrong
