To determine which points are possible solutions to the inequality 2x - 3y < 6, we need to substitute the coordinates of each point into the inequality and check if the inequality is true or false.
For the given options:
1. (0,0):
2(0) - 3(0) < 6
0 < 6
This is true, so (0,0) is a possible solution.
2. (1,2):
2(1) - 3(2) < 6
2 - 6 < 6
-4 < 6
This is true, so (1,2) is a possible solution.
3. (6,2):
2(6) - 3(2) < 6
12 - 6 < 6
6 < 6
This is false, so (6,2) is not a possible solution.
4. (4,5):
2(4) - 3(5) < 6
8 - 15 < 6
-7 < 6
This is true, so (4,5) is a possible solution.
Therefore, the possible solutions to the inequality 2x - 3y < 6 are (0,0), (1,2), and (4,5).
