Q. Is (2,10) a solution to the inequality y>3x+1 ?Choices:(A)yes(B)no
Substitute Values: Substitute the values 2,10 into the inequality y > 3x + 1. The substituted inequality is 10 > 3(2) + 1.
Calculate Right Side: Calculate the right side of the inequality 3(2)+1. Simplify 3(2) to get 6, and then add 1 to get 7.
Check Inequality: The inequality 10 > 3(2) + 1 becomes 10 > 7. Now, determine if the point (2,10) makes the inequality y > 3x + 1 true. 10 > 7 is a true statement. Therefore, the point (2,10) does satisfy the inequality y > 3x + 1.
