The number of ordered pairs that satisfy the inequality is
Correct answer: B. infinite
- A. finite
- B. infinite
- C. unique
- D. None
Explanation
In many cases, the number of ordered pairs that satisfy an inequality is infinite. For instance, in the inequality \(x > 0\), there are infinitely many ordered pairs \((x, y)\) that satisfy the inequality, as long as \(x\) is positive. This is because for any positive value of \(x\), there is a corresponding value of \(y\) that satisfies the inequality.

About Linear Equations
Linear equations contain variables only to the first power and produce straight-line relationships when represented graphically. Problems involve solving equations with brackets, fractions, and variables on both sides, forming equations from statements, and handling simultaneous linear equations, which differ from quadratic equations by having no squared variable.
