Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I think the x value is 1

But however I don’t think the solution is (1, 10) because the y value is bigger than as can be seen in one of the equation that is written y > 10 so y can be 11, 12, 13,.....

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

If (1, 10) is a solution to the system then it must satisfy both inequalities.

Using x = 1 and y = 10 , then

10 > 1 + 9 , that is

10 > 10 ← False

and

10 > 10 ← False

Neither of the inequalities are satisfied by (1, 10)

Thus it is not a solution
