Question 755659

Determine whether the given point is a solution to the linear inequality.

x - y ≤ -6: (-5, 3)


This problem requires you to simply plug in the values associated with that point (- 5, 3) into the inequality and then determine if the inequality is true.


{{{x - y <= - 6}}}


{{{- 5 - 3 <= - 6}}} ------ Substituting (- 5, 3) for (x, y)


{{{highlight_green(- 8 <= - 6)}}} ------> This is TRUE, so the given point, (- 5, 3) is DEFINITELY a solution to the linear inequality.
