Q. Does (4,9) make the inequality y≥2x+1 true? Choices:(A)yes(B)no
Substitute values into inequality: Substitute the values (4,9) into the inequality y≥2x+1. The substituted inequality is 9≥2(4)+1.
Calculate right side: Calculate the right side of the inequality 2(4)+1. Simplify this to get 8+1, which equals 9.
Determine if inequality is true: The inequality now reads 9≥9. Determine if this makes the inequality y≥2x+1 true. Since 9 is equal to 9, the inequality holds true because the 'greater than or equal to' sign includes equality.
