Q. 9x+4y<8−3x−7y≥5Is (1,−2) a solution of the system?Choose 1 answer:(A) Yes(B) No
Step 1: Check first inequality: Check if the point (1,−2) satisfies the inequality 9x + 4y < 8.Substitute x=1 and y=−2 into the inequality 9x + 4y < 8.9(1) + 4(-2) < 89 - 8 < 81 < 8The point (1,−2) satisfies the first inequality.
Step 2: Check second inequality: Check if the point (1,−2) satisfies the inequality −3x−7y≥5.Substitute x=1 and y=−2 into the inequality −3x−7y≥5.−3(1)−7(−2)≥5−3+14≥511≥5The point (1,−2) satisfies the second inequality.
Step 3: Determine solution to the system: Determine if the point (1,−2) is a solution to the system of inequalities.Since the point (1,−2) satisfies both inequalities, it is a solution to the system.
