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

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.

set each factor equal to 0

4x-3 = 0

2x-1 = 0

solve for x.

4x-3=0

4x=3

x= 3/4

solve for x. 

2x-1= 0

2x= 1

x= 1/2

eventually after a few more steps, your answer should be 1/2 is less than or equal to x and 3/4 is greater than or equal to x

the answer is ! ?
