Question

Which of these ordered pairs is a solution to the inequality y – 2x ≤ –3?

(TEACHER HINT: Ordered pairs are always (x,y). Make sure you are matching the number in the ordered pair with the right variable in the inequality. Now, don’t forget to use your order of operations to simplify. You’re looking for the ordered pair that will make this statement true.)

A.(2, 4)
B.(–2, 3)
C.(3, 4)
D.(1, –1)

Answer 1

The answer is D.(1,-1) the reason is -1(y)-2*1(x)=-3 so, -1-2*1 is less than or equal to -3.
