Question

Is the point (10,-7) a valid solution to 3x+2y>25
Show work

Answer 1

To determine if the point (10,-7) is a valid solution to the inequality 3x+2y>25, we substitute the values of x and y into the inequality and check if it is true.

3(10) + 2(-7) > 25
30 - 14 > 25
16 > 25

Since 16 is not greater than 25, the inequality is false. Therefore, (10,-7) is not a valid solution to 3x+2y>25.
