Which of the points shown on the graph is a solution to the simultaneous inequalities y>3x+1

and y≤2x+5
? Write the x-value first and the y-value second.

(1 point)

To find a solution to the simultaneous inequalities \( y > 3x + 1 \) and \( y \leq 2x + 5 \), we need to check points from the graph against both inequalities.

  1. Inequality \( y > 3x + 1 \): This inequality defines a region above the line \( y = 3x + 1 \).
  2. Inequality \( y \leq 2x + 5 \): This inequality defines a region below or on the line \( y = 2x + 5 \).

You should look for points that lie in the region that satisfies both conditions - above the first line and below or on the second line.

To determine if a point \( (x, y) \) is a solution:

  • For the first inequality, check if \( y > 3x + 1 \).
  • For the second inequality, check if \( y \leq 2x + 5 \).

Without viewing the specific graph you mentioned, I can't determine the exact points. However, you can substitute the coordinates of the points on the graph into these inequalities to find a solution.

Look for a point where:

  1. The point is above the line \( y = 3x + 1 \).
  2. The point is below or on the line \( y = 2x + 5 \).

If you provide the available points from the graph, I'd be happy to help you choose the solution point!
