determine wheather the ordered pair (-2,6) is a solution of the aystem y>2x+7 and y greater than or equal to 5-3x
:
your just plugging in the x and y values to determine if those values make the given equations true
:
y%3E2x%2B7---->6%3E2%28-2%29%2B7--->6%3E3
:
is 6 greater than 3...yes, so (-2,6) is in the solution set for this equation.
:
y%3E=5-3x--->6%3E=5-3%28-2%29--->6>=11
:
is 6 greater than or equal to 11...No, so (-2,6) is NOT in the solution set for this equation
