Answers: 1 = yes, 2 = no, 3 = yes

Step-by-step explanation:

1. (3, 7)

y > 6 ⇒ 7 > 6 TRUE

y ≤ 2x + 3 ⇒ 7 ≤ 2(3) + 3 ⇒ 7 ≤ 6 + 3 ⇒ 7 ≤ 9 TRUE

Both are true statements so (3, 7) IS a solution

2. (2, 3)

y ≤ 0 ⇒ 3 ≤ 0 FALSE

y < 3x - 1

At least one statement is false so (2, 3) is NOT a solution

3. (-2, 1)

y ≥ x - 5 ⇒ 1 ≥ -2 - 5 ⇒ 1 ≥ -7 TRUE

y > 2x + 7 ⇒ 1 > 2(-2) + 7 ⇒ 1 > -4 + 7 ⇒ 1 > 3 TRUE

Both are true statements so (-2, 1) IS a solution
