Question 1094154: Which ordered pair is NOT a solution of y<|x-3|+5
(0,0)
(1,3)
(2,6)
(3,4)

Answer by Edwin McCravy(20064)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Plug in the first coordinate for x.
Plug in the second coordinate for y.
Simplify
If what you get is true, then it IS a solution
If what you get is false it is NOT a solution.

Let's plug in (0,0)
We plug in 0 for x and 0 for y:
y < |x-3|+5
0 < |0-3|+5
0 < |-3|+5
0 < 3+5
0 < 8
TRUE, so (0,0) IS a solution.

Let's plug in (1,3)
We plug in 1 for x and 3 for y:
y < |x-3|+5
3 < |1-3|+5
3 < |-2|+5
3 < 2+5
3 < 7
TRUE, so (1,3) IS a solution.

Let's plug in (2,6)
We plug in 2 for x and 6 for y:
y < |x-3|+5
6 < |2-3|+5
6 < |-1|+5
6 < 1+5
6 < 6
FALSE, 6 is NOT less than 6 because it EQUALS 6
so (2,6) IS NOT a solution.

So we've found it.  But let's do the last one anyhow
to make sure there's only one answer:

Let's plug in (3,4)
We plug in 3 for x and 4 for y:
y < |x-3|+5
4 < |3-3|+5
4 < |-1|+5
4 < 1+5
4 < 6
TRUE, so (3,4) IS a solution.
