Question

The graph of 6x + 4y = −2 is shown on the grid. Which ordered pair is in the solution set of 6x + 4y ≤ −2?

A) (2, 3)
B) (3, 2)
C) (−2, −3)
D) (−2, 3)

Answer 1

C) (−2, −3)

Explanation:

The given inequality is 6x + 4y ≤ −2

We can substitute each point to see which ones satisfy the inequality.

Since you were given a graph, you can alternatively plot the points as shown in the attachment.

All the points that fall in the shaded region including the boundary line are solutions.

From the graph, the correct answer is (-2,-3)
