Question 1 • Algebra I

Which ordered pair makes both inequalities true? y is less than or equal to negative x plus 1 y is greater than x

Answer
A
negative 1 comma negative 3
B
0 comma negative 1
C
negative 3 comma 5
D
negative 2 comma 2

Explanation

For the ordered pair (−2, 2), substitute x = −2 and y = 2. The first inequality becomes 2 ≤ −(−2) + 1 = 3, which is true; the second becomes 2 > −2, which is also true. So (−2, 2), choice B, makes both inequalities true.
