Q. Does (2,8) make the inequality y≥3x+2 true?Choices:(A)yes(B)no
Substitute values into inequality: Substitute the values (2,8) into the inequality y≥3x+2. The substituted inequality is 8≥3(2)+2.
Calculate right side: Calculate the right side of the inequality 3(2)+2. Simplify this to get 3×2+2=6+2=8.
Check if inequality holds true: The inequality 8≥3(2)+2 becomes 8≥8. Now, determine if the point (2,8) makes the inequality y≥3x+2 true. Since 8 is equal to 8, the inequality holds true.
