Q. Does the point (5,3) satisfy the inequality 20x+7y>9 ?Choices:(A) yes(B) no
Substitute values into inequality: Substitute the values (5,3) into the inequality 20x + 7y > 9. The substituted inequality is 20(5) + 7(3) > 9.
Calculate left side: Calculate the left side of the inequality 20(5)+7(3). Simplify it to get 100+21.
Add numbers together: Add the numbers together to get 121. So, 20(5) + 7(3) > 9 becomes 121 > 9.
Determine if point satisfies inequality: Determine if the point (5,3) makes the inequality 20x + 7y > 9 true. Since 121 > 9 is a true statement, the point (5,3) does satisfy the inequality 20x + 7y > 9.
