Q. Is (3,2) a solution of −8x−2y<6?Choose 1 answer:(A) Yes(B) No
Substitute values into inequality: Substitute the values of x and y from the point (3,2) into the inequality -8x - 2y < 6.Substitute x=3 and y=2 into the inequality.-8(3) - 2(2) < 6-24 - 4 < 6-28 < 6
Check if result is true: Check if the result from Step 1 is true.The inequality -28 < 6 is true because −28 is less than 6.
Determine if point is a solution: Determine if the point (3,2) is a solution to the inequality.Since the inequality -28 < 6 is true, the point (3,2) satisfies the inequality -8x - 2y < 6.
