Does(1, 3)maketheinequality8x + 3y ≥ 19true?

Answer 1

To check if the point (1, 3) satisfies the inequality 8x + 3y ≥ 19, we substitute x = 1 and y = 3 into the inequality:

8(1) + 3(3) ≥ 19
8 + 9 ≥ 19
17 ≥ 19

Since 17 is not greater than or equal to 19, the inequality is not true for the point (1, 3).
