Answer:

(1, 5) is not a solution of the given system

Step-by-step explanation:

The point (x, y)= (1, 5) is a solution of the given system if the point satisfies both inequalities.

y ≥ 4x

5 ≥ 4(1)

5 ≥ 4

y < x + 2

5 < 1 + 2

5 < 3

Since 5 is greater than 3, the second inequality is not satisfied and the point (1, 5) is not a solution of the given system.
