Does the point (2, 9) satisfy the inequality y ≤ 3 x + 1 ?
Naily [24]

A point is written using the form (X,Y), so the first number is the X and the second number is the Y.


Replace x and Y in the given equation with the given point:


y ≤ 3x+1

9 ≤ 3(2) +1

9 ≤ 6 +1

9 ≤ 7


9 is not less than or equal to 7, so the point (2,9) does not satisfy the inequality.
