Question

Which ordered pair is a solution to the system of inequalities? y > 2x

y > 7
A. (0, 0) B. (4, 8) C. (3, 7) D. (1, 9)

Answer 1

D( 1,9)

Explanation:

First y must be greater than 7 which eliminates A and C

y must be greater than 2 times the x value

2*4 = 8 so B is eliminated

2*1 = 2 which is less than 9 Choice D is a solution
