Solve the system of inequalities to decide if the point (-3,2) is part of the solution; y<=-4x-3, +8y>=7

Sagot :

Answer:

[tex](x,y) = (-3,2)[/tex] is a solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]y \le -4x + 3[/tex]

[tex]x + 8y \ge 7[/tex]

Required

Determine if [tex](x,y) = (-3,2)[/tex] is a solution

[tex]y \le -4x + 3[/tex] becomes

[tex]2 \le -4 * -3 + 3[/tex]

[tex]2 \le 15[/tex] --- this is true

[tex]x + 8y \ge 7[/tex]

[tex]-3+ 8 * 2 \ge 7[/tex]

[tex]13 \ge 7[/tex] --- this is also true

Hence,

[tex](x,y) = (-3,2)[/tex] is a solution
