Q. y<−4x+4Which point (x,y) is a solution to the given inequality in the xy-plane?A) (2,−1)B) (2,1)C) (0,5)D) (−4,0)
Understand the inequality: Understand the inequality.The inequality y < -4x + 4 represents a region in the xy-plane below the line y=−4x+4. We need to find which of the given points lies in this region.
Test point A (2,−1): Test point A (2,−1).Substitute x=2 and y=−1 into the inequality to check if it holds true.-1 < -4(2) + 4-1 < -8 + 4-1 < -4This is true, so point A (2,−1) is a solution to the inequality.
Test point B 2,1: Test point B 2,1.Substitute x=2 and y=1 into the inequality to check if it holds true.1 < -4(2) + 41 < -8 + 41 < -4This is false, so point B 2,1 is not a solution to the inequality.
Test point C (0,5): Test point C (0,5).Substitute x=0 and y=5 into the inequality to check if it holds true.5 < -4(0) + 45 < 0 + 45 < 4This is false, so point C (0,5) is not a solution to the inequality.
Test point D (−4,0): Test point D (−4,0).Substitute x=−4 and y=0 into the inequality to check if it holds true.0 < -4(-4) + 40 < 16 + 40 < 20This is true, so point D (−4,0) is a solution to the inequality.
