Question

Determine whether the pair of coordinate pairs will make the linear inequality true or false.(10, 6).Y ≤ -5/5x+3

Answer 1

False.

Explanation:

We have the ordered pair (10, 6) and we want to see if this ordered pair is a solution of the inequality:

y ≤ -5/5x+3

Remember that a generic ordered pair is written as (x, y)

Then for the ordered pair (10, 6) we have:

x = 10

y = 6

So we just need to replace these two values in the inequality and see if the inequality is true or false.

Replacing these values we get:

6 ≤ (-5/5*10) + 3

6 ≤ (-1/10) + 3

This is false, 6 is not less than the thing at the right, so we can conclude that (10, 6) is not a solution of the inequality.

So the coordinate pair makes the inequality false.
