To determine if the point (12, -112) is a solution to the inequality y > 45x - 3, we can substitute the x-coordinate into the inequality and see if the resulting value is less than -112.
1. Substitute x = 12 into the equation y = 45x - 3:
y = 45(12) - 3
y = 540 - 3
y = 537
2. Now compare the value we found (537) with the y-coordinate of the point (-112):
We have -112 < 537.
Since -112 is less than 537, the point (12, -112) does not satisfy the inequality y > 45x - 3.
Therefore, the answer is 2 (no).
