Is k = –10 a solution to the inequality below? k < –10 Choices: (A)yes (B)no

Given Value Check: We are given k = -10. We need to check if this value satisfies the inequality k < -10. Plug in the value for k in k < -10. k < -10 Replace k with -10. -10 < -10Inequality Evaluation: Determine if the inequality -10 < -10 is true. The statement -10 < -10 is not true because -10 is not less than -10; they are equal. Therefore, k = -10 is not a solution to the inequality k < -10.Solution Determination: Choose the equivalent option that says k = -10 is not a solution to the inequality k < -10. Since k = -10 does not satisfy the inequality k < -10, the answer is no.

Q. Is

k = -10

a solution to the inequality below?

\newline

k < -10

\newline

Choices:

\newline

(A)yes

\newline

(B)no

Given Value Check: We are given $k = -10$ . We need to check if this value satisfies the inequality k < -10. Plug in the value for $k$ in k < -10. k < -10 Replace $k$ with $-10$ . -10 < -10
Inequality Evaluation: Determine if the inequality -10 < -10 is true. $\newline$ The statement -10 < -10 is not true because $-10$ is not less than $-10$ ; they are equal. $\newline$ Therefore, $k = -10$ is not a solution to the inequality k < -10.
Solution Determination: Choose the equivalent option that says $k = -10$ is not a solution to the inequality k < -10. $\newline$ Since $k = -10$ does not satisfy the inequality k < -10, the answer is no.
