Step-by-step explanation:

y - 2x < 3

To determine if the ordered [pair is a solution, we would insert the values into the inequality to confirm if the statement will be true.

a) (2,4) = (x, y)

4 - 2(2) < 3

4 - 4 <3

0 < 3

This is false

b) (-2, 3) = (x, y)

3 - 2(-2) < 3

3 + 4 <3

7 < 3

This is false

c) (3, 4) = (x, y)

4 - 2(3) < 3

4 - 6 < 3

-2 < 3

This is true

d) (1, -1) = (x, y)

-1 -2(1) < 3

-1 - 2 < 3

-3 < 3
