Q. Is (8,8) a solution to the inequality y≥2x+10 ?Choices:(A)yes(B)no
Substitute values into inequality: Substitute the values 8,8 into the inequality y≥2x+10. The substituted inequality is 8≥2(8)+10.
Simplify right side: Simplify the right side of the inequality 2(8)+10. This simplifies to 16+10, which equals 26.
Check if statement is true: The inequality now reads 8≥26. Determine if this is a true statement.
Verify solution: Since 8 is not greater than or equal to 26, the statement 8≥26 is false. Therefore, the point (8,8) is not a solution to the inequality y≥2x+10.
