Answer:
a) (1, -2)
Step-by-step explanation:
The given inequality is y < -|x|
We substitute the point to see which points satisfy the inequality.
For a) (1, -2), we substitute x=1 and y=-2 to get:
-2 < -|1|---------->-2<-1--------->True
For b) (1, -1), we substitute x=1 and y=-1 to get:
-1 < -|1|---------->-1<-1--------->False
For a) (1, 0), we substitute x=1 and y=0 to get:
0 < -|1|---------->0<-1--------->False
The first choice is correct.
