Answer:

[tex](4,7)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]2x - 3 < y[/tex]

[tex](x,7)[/tex]

Required

Find one possible value of x

From the given parameters;

[tex](x,7)[/tex] is a possible solution of [tex]2x - 3 < y[/tex] where y= 7

Substitute 7 for y

[tex]2x - 3 < 7[/tex]

Add 3 to both sides

[tex]2x - 3 + 3 < 7 + 3[/tex]

[tex]2x < 10[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2

[tex]2x/2 < 10/2[/tex]

[tex]x < 5[/tex]

The result of the inequality implies that x is less than 5; So, the possible values of x is all real numbers less than 5;

Having said that;

[tex](4,7)[/tex] is one possible coordinate of [tex]2x - 3 < y[/tex]
