4x + 7y < 26;

(3, 2) in this case, x = 3 and y = 2, if we use this values in the inequality:

4x + 7y < 26

4(3) + 7(2) < 26

12 + 14 < 26

26 < 26 is FALSE, so this is NOT a solution of the inequality

(2,3) in this case x = 2 and y = 3, if we use this values in the inequality:

4x + 7y < 26

4(2) + 7(3) < 26

8 + 21 < 26

29 < 26 is FALSE, so this is NOT a solution of the inequality

Answer:

Both ordered pairs are NOT a solution of the inequality
