Question

Which point is NOT a solution to this graphed inequality?

the graph of a dashed line that passes through the points (negative 4, 0) and (0, 2), with shading below the line



(0, 0)


(-4, -3)


(1, 5)


(2, -1)

Answer 1

1,5 is not a solution

Answer 2

(1, 5)

Explanation:

The shaded part of the graph shows an inequality with a dashes line which passes through the points (4, 0) and (0, 2).

To check whether which of the given points is not a solution of the graphed inequality, we need to see if it lies above the shaded graph.

(0, 0) - this point is covered in the shaded part of the graph so this is a solution to it

(-4, -3) - this point is also covered in the shaded part of the graph so this is a solution to it

(1, 5) - this point lies above the shaded area of the graph so this point is not a solution to it

(2, -1) - this point is covered in the shaded area
