Is (2, -4) a solution to the inequality 2x - 3y < 15? Yes or No

1 answer:

Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

We substitute the values x = 2 and y = -4 into the inequality.

Left side = 2(2) - 3(-4) = 4 + 12

= 16

Now the right side is 15 so we get 16 < 15 which is incorrect.

So (2, -4) is not a solution.

Solve for b:<br><br> b² = 8b + 84

levacccp [35]

B² = 8b + 84
b² - 8b - 84 = 0
b = <u>-(-8) +/- √((8)² - 4(1)(-84))</u>
   2(1)<u>
</u>b = <u>8 +/- √(64 + 336)</u>
   2
b = <u>8 +/- √(400)
</u>    2<u>
</u>b = <u>8 +/- 20
</u> 2
b = 4 <u>+</u> 10
b = 4 + 10 b = 4 - 10
b = 14 b = -6
