Question

Which of these ordered pairs is a solution to the linear inequality 3y – 2x ≥ 8?

(3, 1)


(1, 3)


(2, –4)


(–4, 2)

Answer 1

(-4 , 2)

Explanation:

Linear inequality:

3y - 2x ≥ 8

The ordered point (-4 ,2) satisfies the inequality. So, (-4,2) is the solution for the equation.

3*2 - 2*(-4) ≥ 8

6 + 8 ≥ 8

14 ≥ 8
