Q. Is (4,1) a solution to the inequality 2x+6y>14 ?Choices:(A)yes(B)no
Substitute values into inequality: Substitute the values (4,1) into the inequality 2x + 6y > 14. The substituted inequality is 2(4) + 6(1) > 14.
Calculate left side: Calculate the left side of the inequality 2(4)+6(1). This simplifies to 8+6, which equals 14.
Compare with right side: Compare the calculated value with the right side of the inequality. We have 14 > 14, which is not true because 14 is not greater than 14.
Check if inequality is true: Since 14 is not greater than 14, the point (4,1) does not make the inequality 2x + 6y > 14 true. Therefore, the answer is no.
