Question

Please summarize in your own words why (1,8) is a solution to
" y is greater than x+5"

Answer 1

The equation "y is greater than x+5" means that y is larger than the sum of x and 5. (1,8) is a solution to this equation because when we substitute x=1 and y=8, we find that 8 is indeed greater than 1+5, which is 6.
