Q. Does the point (2,5) satisfy the inequality y≤3x+8?Choices:(A)yes(B)no
Substitute Values: Substitute the values of the point (2,5) into the inequality y≤3x+8. The substituted inequality is 5≤3(2)+8.
Calculate Right Side: Calculate the right side of the inequality 3(2)+8. Simplify this to get 3×2=6 and then add 8 to get 6+8=14.
Check Satisfaction: The inequality 5≤3(2)+8 simplifies to 5≤14. Now, determine if the point (2,5) satisfies the inequality y≤3x+8. Since 5 is less than or equal to14, the point (2,5) does satisfy the inequality.
