Tell whether (6, 35) is a solution of y < 5x + 8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

fan and medal 4 help plzzz

OpenStudy (mathmale):

(6,35) is a point; its x-coordinate is 6 and its y-coord. is 35. Merely substitute this x and this y into the inequality. Is the inequality then true or false? If true, you've got a solution. If not, then the given point is not a solution of the original inequality.

im asking 4 a reason ;)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

idk

OpenStudy (tfht):

sub 6 in for x and 35 in for y. so it will look like 35<5(6)+8

OpenStudy (tfht):

then do 5*6+8 and see if that is greater than 35 (it is)

OpenStudy (tfht):

your final product should be 35<38

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so its yes?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes it is

OpenStudy (tfht):

yes, it is a solution
