Q. Is (5,7) a solution to this system of inequalities?x≤5y≥x+2Choices:(A)yes(B)no
Check Point (5,7): Does the point (5,7) satisfy the inequality x≤5?Substitute 5 for x in x≤5.5≤5Since 5≤5 is true, (5,7) satisfies x≤5.
Substitute Values: Does the point (5,7) satisfy the inequality y≥x+2?Substitute 5 for x and 7 for y in y≥x+2.7≥5+27≥7Since 7≥7 is true, (5,7) satisfies y≥x+2.
Verify Solutions: Is (5,7) a solution to the system of inequalities?Since (5,7) satisfies both x≤5 and y≥x+2, (5,7) is a solution to the system of inequalities.
