Answer:

the first option, (-4, 6)

Explanation:

for this question, we can use the substitution method. this is where we substitute the coordinates in the answer choices into the given system of inequalities or equations to determine which one is true.

1. (-4,6)

x + 4y > 12

-4 + 4(6) > 12

20 > 12 is true

now we can substitute the second inequality.

3(6) > -4 + 6

18 > 2 is true, therefore making this set of points true.

it may be helpful to substitute the rest of the values of x and y into the inequalities to verify your answers :

5 + 4(2) > 12

5 + 8 > 12

13> 12 is true

3(2) > 5 + 6

6 > 11 is not true

the rest of the answer choices are also not true.

I hope this helped you!
