Q. Does (3,8) make the inequality y≥7x+4 true?Choices:(A) yes(B) no
Substitute values into inequality: Substitute the values 3,8 into the inequality y≥7x+4. The substituted inequality is 8≥7(3)+4.
Calculate right side: Calculate the right side of the inequality 7(3)+4. Simplify 7(3) to get 21 and then add 4 to get 25.
Determine if point satisfies inequality: The inequality 8≥7(3)+4 becomes 8≥25. Now, determine if the point (3,8) makes the inequality y≥7x+4 true. 8≥25 is a false statement. Therefore, the point (3,8) does not make the inequality y≥7x+4 true.
