Q. Is (7,8) a solution to the inequality y≥x+2?Choices:(A)yes(B)no
Substitute values into inequality: Substitute the values (7,8) into the inequality y≥x+2. The substituted inequality is 8≥7+2.
Simplify right side: Simplify the right side of the inequality 7+2 to get 9.
Check if inequality is true: The inequality 8≥7+2 becomes 8≥9 after simplification. Now, determine if the inequality is true or false.
Verify point in inequality: Since 8 is not greater than or equal to 9, the inequality 8≥9 is false. Therefore, the point (7,8) does not make the inequality y≥x+2 true.
