Answer:
Answer B
Step-by-step explanation:
1. (1, -4) is NOT a solution because (1) - 2(-4) < 4 is false.
2. (-8, 2): -8 - 2(2) < 4 is true, and in simplified form is -12 < 4 (true) We must check whether this point (-8, 2) ALSO satisfies y > -2x - 5:
2 > -2(-8) - 5. Yes, this is true, so the given point satisfies both inequalities in Answer B.
