Is (-5,-8) a solution of y > 3x+6

1 Answer

7 votes

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

We can check whether (-5, -8) is a solution by plugging in the point for x and y and seeing whether the inequality still holds true:

-8 > 3(-5) + 6

-8 > -15 + 6

-8 > -9

Because -8 is greater than -9, (-5, -8) is a solution to the inequality
