Q. Is (2,8) a solution to this system of inequalities?y<x+8x>2Choices:(A)yes(B)no
Check Point (2,8): Check if the point (2,8) satisfies the inequality y < x + 8.Substitute 2 for x and 8 for y in the inequality y < x + 8.8 < 2 + 88 < 10Since 8 < 10 is true, (2,8) satisfies the inequality y < x + 8.
Satisfy Inequality y < x + 8: Check if the point (2,8) satisfies the inequality x > 2. Substitute 2 for x in the inequality x > 2. 2 > 2 Since 2 > 2 is false (2 is not greater than 2, it is equal to 2), (2,8) does not satisfy the inequality x > 2.
