Q. Is (−4,2) a solution of 4x+5y≤−7 ?Choose 1 answer:(A) Yes(B) No
Substitute point into inequality: Substitute the point (−4,2) into the inequality 4x+5y≤−7.Calculate 4(−4)+5(2) to see if it is less than or equal to−7.4(−4)+5(2)=−16+10=−6Check if −6≤−7.
Calculate value: Determine if the calculated value satisfies the inequality.Since −6 is not less than or equal to −7, the point (−4,2) does not satisfy the inequality 4x+5y≤−7.
