Yes. For (x,y) = (−5,−6):
1) x < −2: −5 < −2 is true.
2) 17x − 12y < 4: 17(−5) − 12(−6) = −85 + 72 = −13, and −13 < 4 is true.
Since both inequalities hold, (−5,−6) is a solution.
1) x < −2: −5 < −2 is true.
2) 17x − 12y < 4: 17(−5) − 12(−6) = −85 + 72 = −13, and −13 < 4 is true.
Since both inequalities hold, (−5,−6) is a solution.
