Whats the answer
**Question 12:**

The diagram represents the graphs of the inequalities \( y \geq 3 \) and \( x < -2 \). Which ordered pair names a point in the solution set of this system of inequalities?

**Graph Description:**

- The graph consists of a coordinate plane.
- A horizontal line is drawn at \( y = 3 \) with shading above it, representing the inequality \( y \geq 3 \).
- A vertical dashed line is drawn at \( x = -2 \) with shading to the left, indicating the inequality \( x < -2 \).
- The intersection of these two shaded regions represents the solution set.

**Answer Choices:**

A. (4, 10)  
B. (4, -10)  
C. (-4, 10)  
D. (-4, -10)  

**Solution Explanation:**

To find the correct ordered pair, we need to identify which point falls within the shaded region where \( y \geq 3 \) and \( x < -2 \) intersect. The points satisfying these inequalities are to the left of \( x = -2 \) and above \( y = 3 \). Therefore, the correct choice is:

C. (-4, 10)
