Answer 2

Answer:

(- 4, - 2 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute the coordinate value into the left side of the inequality and compare the value obtained to the right side

(- 2 , - 3 )

- 3 - 2 = - 5 = - 5 ← not a solution

(- 4, - 2 )

- 2 - 4 = - 6 < - 5 ← solution

(- 3, - 2 )

- 2 - 3 = - 5 ← not a solution

(- 1, - 3 )

- 3 - 1 = - 4 > - 5 ← not a solution
