Question

.. pls help me....!!!!! Determine whether the point (-2,4) satisfy y<3x+5,y=3x+5 or y >3x+5..​

Answer 1

y < 3x + 5: No

y = 3x + 5: No

y > 3x + 5: Yes

Explanation:

You can just put the value of x which is (-2) into each equation to see if the y value would be 4.

y < 3x + 5

y < 3(-2) + 5

y < -6 + 5

4 < -1 (This equation is wrong, so the point does not satisfy this equation)

y = 3x + 5

y = 3(-2) + 5

y = -6 + 5

4 = -1 (This equation is wrong, so the point does not satisfy this equation)

y > 3x + 5

y > 3(-2) + 5

y > -6 + 5

4 > -1 (This equation is correct, so the point does satisfy the equation)
