Which of the following ordered pairs is a solution to the system:$$y\leq2x+3$$$$y$$ > $$-x+1$$
- $$(0,0)$$
- $$(1,4)$$
- $$(2,-1)$$
- $$(-1,0)$$
The system $$y\le-2x+6$$ and $$y$$ > $$0$$ represents a region that lies:
- above both lines
- below both lines
- below one line and above the $$x$$-axis
- below one line and below the $$x$$-axis
If the shaded region of a graph includes the point $$(2,1)$$ and excludes $$(0,4)$$, which of the following could represent the system?
- $$y$$ > $$x$$ and $$y$$ < $$2x-1$$
- $$y$$ > $$x$$ and $$y$$ > $$2x-1$$
- $$y$$ < $$x$$ and $$y$$ < $$2x-1$$
- $$y$$<$$ x$$ and $$y$$ > $$2x-1$$
The solution set of $$y$$ > $$-\frac12x+2$$ and $$y\le x+1$$ is best described as:
- the region above both lines
- the region below both lines
- the region between the two lines
- not known
Which inequality describes the shaded region below the line $$y=\frac{3}{4}x+1$$?
- $$y$$ > $$\frac{3}{4}x+1$$
- $$y$$ < $$\frac{3}{4}x+1$$
- $$y\ge\frac{3}{4}x+1$$
- $$y\le\frac{3}{4}x+1$$
