6. Graphing Linear Inequalities in Two Variables
Sign In
Does substituting the point into the inequality result in a true statement?
No
To determine if a point satisfies an equation, we substitute the point into the equation and simplify. If the resulting statement is true, then the point is contained in the solution set. For inequalities, we can use the same method. Let's test the given point.
x= 0, y= 0
Zero Property of Multiplication
Subtract term
Since 0 is not greater than or equal to 5, (0,0) is not a solution of the inequality.
