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

  1. For point \( (0, -13) \):

    • Substitute \( x = 0 \): \( y > 19(0) - 29 \) becomes \( y > -29 \).
    • Check \( -13 > -29 \) (True).
  2. For point \( (0, -\frac{1}{3}) \):

    • Substitute \( x = 0 \): \( y > 19(0) - 29 \) becomes \( y > -29 \).
    • Check \( -\frac{1}{3} > -29 \) (True).
  3. For point \( (0, -49) \):

    • Substitute \( x = 0 \): \( y > 19(0) - 29 \) becomes \( y > -29 \).
    • Check \( -49 > -29 \) (False).
  4. For point \( (0, -\frac{4}{9}) \):

    • Substitute \( x = 0 \): \( y > 19(0) - 29 \) becomes \( y > -29 \).
    • Check \( -\frac{4}{9} > -29 \) (True).
  5. For point \( (0, -19) \):

    • Substitute \( x = 0 \): \( y > 19(0) - 29 \) becomes \( y > -29 \).
    • Check \( -19 > -29 \) (True).
  6. For point \( (0, -29) \):

    • Substitute \( x = 0 \): \( y > 19(0) - 29 \) becomes \( y > -29 \).
    • Check \( -29 > -29 \) (False, since it needs to be greater than).

From the calculations, the points that satisfy the inequality \( y > 19x - 29 \) are:

  • \( (0, -13) \)
  • \( (0, -\frac{1}{3}) \)
  • \( (0, -\frac{4}{9}) \)
  • \( (0, -19) \)

Thus, any of the first four points are valid solutions, but the point \( (0, -29) \) is not.
