ENHZ:

is (2,1) a solution to this system of inequalities? 5x + 8y > 18 _ x + 17y < 19

snowflake0531:

i would suggest plugging the coordinate in to both inequalities

snowflake0531:

so, for the first one 5(2) + 8(1) > 18 10 + 8 > 18 is ^^^ true?

ENHZ:

its just a yes or no question, hmm

ENHZ:

false. since 18> 18?

snowflake0531:

yes, it is false since > means that one must be higher than the other, since there's no line underneath sooooooo, the answer to the whole question is, 'no' lol

ENHZ:

ok, it seemed waaay more complicated in my head

ENHZ:

Thanks!
