Please select the best answer from the choices provided

Answer 1

y < -2x +3

A. (1, 1) → x = 1, y = 1

substitute:

1 < -2(1) + 3

1 < 1 FALSE

B. (3, 0) → x = 3, y = 0

substitute

0 < -2(3) +3

0 < -3 FALSE

C. (-3, 10) → x = -3, y = 10

substitute

10 < -2(-3) +3

10 < 9 FALSE

D. (0, 0) → x = 0, y = 0

substitute

0 < -2(0) + 3

0 < 3 CORRECT

Answer: D. (0, 0)
