Question

Is the point (1,-3) a solution to the system? Show all work.
y y>-x+2

Answer 1

no

Explanation:

To determine if the point is a solution, substitute the x value into the right side of the inequality and compare the result with the y value of the point.

- x + 2 = - 1 + 2 = 1

Now - 3 < 1

Thus (1, - 3) is not a solution
