Final answer:

Both 0 and 1 are solutions to the inequality 5 < 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Juanita is not correct. To determine if a number is a solution to an inequality, we substitute the number into the inequality and check if it is true or false. In this case, we substitute 0 and 1 into the inequality 5 < 6.

Substituting 0: Is 5 < 6 true? Yes, 0 is a solution.

Substituting 1: Is 5 < 6 true? Yes, 1 is a solution.

Since both 0 and 1 satisfy the inequality, Juanita is correct. Both 0 and 1 are solutions to the inequality 5 < 6.
