Is the point (-5,1) a solution of -3y+2x<-9 (The < has a line under it.)
\n" ); document.write( "------------
\n" ); document.write( "Substitute for x and for y to see if you get a true statement:
\n" ); document.write( "--------------
\n" ); document.write( "-3*1 + 2*-5 <= -9
\n" ); document.write( "-3 -10 <= -9
\n" ); document.write( "-13 <= -9
\n" ); document.write( "True
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------
\n" ); document.write( "Therefore (-5,1) is an element of the solution set.
