Answer: A, (0, -3)

Explanation:

Inequalities, once graphed, take the form of the image you attached:

Linear inequalities are straight lines, sometimes dotted and sometimes solid, with shading on one side of the line.

Any point in the shading is a correct solution to the inequality.

  • When the line is solid, any point on the line is a solution to the inequality.
  • When the line is dotted, only the shaded area past the line includes solutions - points on the line are not solutions.

In this case, the line is solid, so any point on the line is a solution to the inequality.

Looking at answer choice A: (0, -3), it lies on the line as the y-intercept.

The correct choice is A.
