Q. Is (−5,−8) a solution of y>3x+6?Choose 1 answer:(A) Yes(B) No
Check Point Satisfaction: Check if the point (−5,−8) satisfies the inequality y > 3x + 6.Substitute x=−5 and y=−8 into the inequality y > 3x + 6.-8 > 3(-5) + 6-8 > -15 + 6-8 > -9
Substitute Values: Determine if the inequality -8 > -9 is true.Since −8 is greater than −9, the inequality is true.
Evaluate Inequality: Conclude if (−5,−8) is a solution to the inequality y > 3x + 6.Since the point (−5,−8) satisfies the inequality, it is a solution.
