Q. Does (2,10) make the inequality y<2x+5 true? Choices:(A)yes(B)no
Substitute values into inequality: Substitute the values 2,10 into the inequality y < 2x + 5. The substituted inequality is 10 < 2(2) + 5.
Simplify right side: Simplify the right side of the inequality 2(2)+5. This simplifies to 4+5, which equals 9.
Evaluate inequality: The inequality now reads 10 < 9. Determine if this statement is true or false.
Final determination: Since 10 is not less than 9, the statement 10 < 9 is false. Therefore, the point (2,10) does not make the inequality y < 2x + 5 true.
