To determine if the point (8, 8) satisfies the inequality \( 13x + 5y > 11 \), we can substitute \( x = 8 \) and \( y = 8 \) into the inequality.

1. Substitute the values into the inequality:

\[
13(8) + 5(8) > 11
\]

2. Calculate \( 13(8) \) and \( 5(8) \):

\[
13(8) = 104
\]
\[
5(8) = 40
\]

3. Add these values together:

\[
104 + 40 = 144
\]

4. Now we check if \( 144 > 11 \):

\[
144 > 11 \text{ is true.}
\]

Since the inequality holds true, the point (8, 8) does satisfy the inequality \( 13x + 5y > 11 \).
