Question 146197


Let's see if {{{x=-3}}} and {{{y=6}}} are a solutions for the inequality {{{6x+y<-2}}}.



{{{6x+y<-2}}} Start with the given inequality.



{{{6*(-3)+(6)<-2}}} Plug in {{{x=-3}}} and {{{y=6}}}.



{{{-12<-2}}} Evaluate and simplify the left side.



Since the inequality is <b>true</b>, this means that (-3,6) is a solution.
