How do you determine whether (0,1) is a solution to #y > x - 1#? Algebra Linear Inequalities and Absolute Value Linear Inequalities in Two Variables 1 Answer Alan P. Jul 16, 2015 #(x,y) = (0,1)# is a valid solution for #y > x - 1# Explanation: Substitute #0# for #x# and #1# for #y# and check if the inequality is valid. In this case #1 > 0 -1#, #color(white)("XXXX")#so #(x,y) = (0,1)# is a valid solution. Answer link Related questions How do you graph linear inequalities in two variables?
