Answer:

a. Yes

b. No

Step-by-step explanation:

To find if an ordered pair is a solution to the inequality, substitute its x and y values for the x and y in the inequality and solve. If the equation is true, then it is a solution. If it is not, then it is not a solution.

1) First, substitute the x and y values of (3, 1) into the inequality. So, substitute 3 for x and 1 for y:

1 \geq 2(3)-5\\1\geq 6-5\\1\geq 1

1 is greater than or equal to 1, so (3,1) is a solution.

2) Second, do the same with the point (1, -4). Substitute 1 for x and -4 for y:

-4\geq 2(1)-5\\\\-4\geq 2-5\\-4\geq -3

However, -4 is not greater than or equal to -3, thus (1, -4) is not a solution.

liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

16 players can be brought to the tournament. The equation is written within my step-by-step explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Variable p = number of players

Set up an equation:

974.50 + 60.75p = 1946.50

Isolate variable p:

60.75p = 972

Divide:

p = 16

Check your work:

974.50 + 60.75(16) = 1946.50

974.50 + 972 = 1946.50

1946.50 = 1946.50

Correct!
