Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

System of the inequalities is,

y ≥ 2x

y < x + 4

By satisfying these inequalities with the points given in the options we can get the answer.

Option (A). (2, 5)

y ≥ 2x

5 ≥ 2(2)

5 ≥ 4

True.

y < x + 4

5 < 2 + 4

5 < 6

True

Therefore, Option (1) is the answer.

Option (B) (1, 6)

y ≥ 2x

6 ≥ 2(1)

6 ≥ 2

True.

y < x + 4

6 < 1 + 4

6 < 5

False.

Therefore, it's not the solution.

Option (C) (2, 3)

y ≥ 2x

3 ≥ 2(2)

3 ≥ 4

False.

y < x + 4

4 < 2 + 4

4 < 6

True.

Therefore, It's not the solution.

Option (D) (1, 5)

y ≥ 2x

5 ≥ 2(1)

5 ≥ 4

True.

y < x + 4

5 < 1 + 4

5 < 5

False.

Therefore, It's not the solution.
