Question

Tell whether -5 is a solution of the inequities

1. b+6 > 1

Answer 1

Answer: False, not a solution because 1 is not greater than 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Original Equation: b + 6 > 1

[plug in -5 for b] -5 + 6 > 1

[reduce] 1 > 1

One is not greater than one, therefore, it is false.
