Question

Does the point (5, 8) satisfy the inequality 2x + y > 18?​

Answer 1

The answer is...... NO

Explanation:

Step 1: Plug in your values in the x and y cordinates.

2(5) + 8 > 18

Step 2: Solve

Then you multiply 2 and 5 and get 10.

SO then your equation should look like this:

10 + 8 > 18

The answer to the question is no because in order for this to work it would need to be the greater than or equal to sign, which looks like this ≥.

Hope this helps and have a great day! :)
