To determine which of the given points is a solution to the linear inequality \( y > 19x - 29 \), we can substitute the x-coordinate of each point into the inequality and see if the corresponding value of y satisfies the inequality.

For each point, the x-coordinate is \( 0 \). So, we substitute \( x = 0 \) into the inequality:

\[ y > 19(0) - 29 \] \[ y > -29 \]

Now we will evaluate each of the given points:

  1. Point (0, -49): \[ -49 > -29 \quad \text{(False)} \]

  2. Point \( \left(0, -\frac{4}{9}\right) \): \[ -\frac{4}{9} > -29 \quad \text{(True)} \]

  3. Point (0, -19): \[ -19 > -29 \quad \text{(True)} \]

  4. Point \( \left(0, -\frac{1}{9}\right) \): \[ -\frac{1}{9} > -29 \quad \text{(True)} \]

  5. Point (0, -29): \[ -29 > -29 \quad \text{(False)} \]

  6. Point \( (0, -13) \): \[ -13 > -29 \quad \text{(True)} \]

The points that satisfy the inequality \( y > -29 \) are:

  • \( \left(0, -\frac{4}{9}\right) \)
  • (0, -19)
  • \( \left(0, -\frac{1}{9}\right) \)
  • (0, -13)

Among these, any of them can be considered a valid solution to the inequality \( y > 19x - 29 \).

If you are looking for one specific point as an answer, one of the options would be \( \left(0, -\frac{4}{9}\right) \).
