Question

Write an inequality that would include the point (3,78), (0,312), (5,10) to be part of the solution.

Answer 1

Answer:

We want to write an inequality with the points (3, 78), (0, 312) and (5, 10) as solutions.

Then the set of the x-values is {0, 3, 5}

The set of the y-values is {10. 78. 312}

So if we wrote an inequality like:

y > 5

It would include all these solutions, because:

10 > 5

78 >  5

312 > 5

And this has no restriction on the x-variable, so all the x-value range can be a solution, meaning that the points (3, 78), (0, 312) and (5, 10) are solutions to that inequality.

Another one (also trivial) can be:

x < 9

because:

3 < 9

0 < 9

5 < 9

And we have no restriction on the y-values, then the points (3, 78), (0, 312) and (5, 10) are solutions to that inequality.
