Q. Is (2,9) a solution to this system of inequalities?12x+19y>1517x+y>13Choices:(A)yes(B)no
Check First Inequality: Does the point (2,9) satisfy the inequality 12x + 19y > 15?Substitute 2 for x and 9 for y in 12x + 19y > 15.12(2) + 19(9) > 1524 + 171 > 15195 > 15Since 195 > 15 is true, (2,9) satisfies the first inequality.
Check Second Inequality: Does the point (2,9) satisfy the inequality 17x + y > 13?Substitute 2 for x and 9 for y in 17x + y > 13.17(2) + 9 > 1334 + 9 > 1343 > 13Since 43 > 13 is true, (2,9) satisfies the second inequality.
Verify Solution: Is (2,9) a solution to the system of inequalities?Since (2,9) satisfies both inequalities:195 > 1543 > 13We can conclude that (2,9) is indeed a solution to the system of inequalities.
