Question

Is the ordered pair a solution of
y>9/14x+2
(4,7)

Answer 1

To determine if the ordered pair (4,7) is a solution to the inequality y > (9/14)x + 2, we substitute x = 4 and y = 7 into the inequality and see if it holds true:

7 > (9/14)(4) + 2

7 > 36/14 + 2

7 > 18/7 + 2

7 > 2.571 + 2

7 > 4.571

Since 7 is not greater than 4.571, the inequality y > (9/14)x + 2 is not satisfied by the ordered pair (4,7).
