Answer: (1,4) = (x,y)

Explanation:

Hello.

So let's check all of the possible answers. y > 1/2 x +2

4 > 1/2 + 2 -> 4 > 2 1/2 (True)

1 > -1/2 + 2 -> 1 > 1 1/2 (False)

3 > 1 + 2 -> 3 > 3 (False). Why? The reason why is because it's >, not ≥

2 > 1/2(0) + 2 -> 2 > 2 (False). Why? Same thing as answer 3. The reason why is because it's >, not ≥

This would make (1,4) the only correct answer. Hope this helps
