Section 6.5: Linear Inequalities
Is the ordered pair a solution for
y > x – 3?
A) (1,2) How do we know if (1,2) is a solution?
y > x - 3( ) > ( ) - 312
A) (1,2)
True: (1,2) is a solution.
2 > -2 True or False?
B) (-3,-7) y > x - 3( ) > ( ) - 3
B) (-3,-7)-7 -3 -7 > -6 True or False?
False: (-3,-7) is not a solution.
Jim has saved $48. He plans to use the money to buy some old books and movies at the Half-Price bookstore. Books cost $6 and movies cost $8.
