Question

Does (10, 9) make the inequality 10x + 13y > 10 true?
yes
no.

Answer 1

Yes (10,9) does make the inequality 10x + 13y > 10 true

Explanation:

1. Substitute (10,9) in place of x and y 10(10) + 13(9) > 10
2. Multiply the variables 10•10=100 and 13•9=117 100 + 117 > 10
3. Add like terms 100 + 117= 217
4. Compare the answer to see if your variable is true since 217 > 10 a true statement then that means yes coordinates (10,9) make the inequality 10x + 13y > 10 true
