Ordered pairs :

A. (4,2)

B. (5,-2)

C.(0,-1)

D.(-3,1)

E. (2,7)

F. (8,4)

Answer:

A, B, F are solution to the inequality

Explanation:

5x - y > 4

To obtain the pairs which are solution to the linear inequality ; we plug in each orders pair of values into the inequality :

A.)

(4,2)

5x - y > 4

5(4) - 2 > 4

20 - 2 > 4

18 > 4 - - - - - - - True

B.

(5, -2)

5x - y > 4

5(5) - (-2) > 4

25 + 2 > 4

27 > 4 - - - True

C.

(0, -1)

5x - y > 4

5(0) - (-1) > 4

1 > 4 - - - - - - - Untrue

D.

(-3,1)

5x - y > 4

5(-3) - 1 > 4

-15 - 1 > 4

-16 > 4 - - - - - > Untrue

E.

(2,7)

5x - y > 4

5(2) - 7 > 4

10 - 7 > 4

3 > 4 - - - - Untrue

F.

(8,4)

5x - y > 4

5(8) - 4 > 4

40 - 4 > 4

36 > 4 - - - - - - - True
