Answer:

C) (3 , 2)

Explanation:

y is greater than 2x - 7.

Note the point values (x , y). y, in this case, must be greater than x after it is simplified.

(3 , -2)

Plug in 3 for x, and -2 for y:

(-2) > 2(3) - 7

-2 > 6 - 7

-2 > -1

(False).

~

(4 , 1)

Plug in 4 for x, and 1 for y:

(1) > 2(4) - 7

1 > 8 - 7

1 > 1

(False).

~

(3 , 2)

Plug in 3 for x, and 2 for y:

(2) > 2(3) - 7

(2) > 6 - 7

2 > 1

(True).
