Question

Graph: y < -1

Is (-2,5) a solution? yes or no
Is ( 6,2) a solution? yes or no

Answer 1

Answer: Both points are not a solution.

Explanation:

This says that the graph will be every y-value less than -1. Both 5 (in the point (-2, 5)) and 2 (in the point (6, 2)) are greater than -1, meaning they are both not a solution.

See attached for a graph with the coordinate points graphed as well. Since these points are not in the shaded region, they are not solutions.
