Question 565477: Is the ordered pair (2,7) a solution to the inequality: x - y ≥ 6
Answer by Leaf W.(135)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! To solve this, try it by plugging in (2,7) for x and y in the inequality. If the inequality holds true, the ordered pair is a solution; if it is false, then the ordered pair is not a solution. Since coordinate form is (x,y), plug 2 in for x and 7 in for y:
x - y ≥ 6
2 - 7 ≥ 6
-5 ≥ 6
Since -5 is less than 6, not greater than or equal to (≥), the inequality does not hold true and (2,7) is NOT a solution to the inequality.
Good luck! =)
