SOLUTION: When we graph the inequality 4x-3 ≥ 0, why can’t we use (0, 0) as a test point? If we test the point (6, -5), do we obtain a false statement or a true one?

Question 773405: When we graph the inequality 4x-3 ≥ 0, why can’t we use (0, 0) as a test point? If we test the point (6, -5), do we obtain a false statement or a true one? Answer by josgarithmetic(39617) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The inequality you gave appears to be one-dimensional. If it is two-dimensional, then y has no restriction. Only x would have some restriction. You COULD test for the point (0, 0), but you would essentially be testing only for the x value. If the point (6, -5) is tested, then the y=-5 part makes no difference. It is the x=6 part that will either make the inequality of either true or false.
