True/False

An operations manager is assessing a new production schedule where the planned adjustments to labor hours (xx) and material costs (yy) are bounded by a system of constraints: y>4x2y > 4x - 2 and 4xy<20{}4x - y < 20.

True or False: The proposed adjustment (4,1)(4, -1) is a valid solution to this system because it successfully satisfies the second inequality (17<20{}17 < 20), even though it fails the first inequality (1>14-1 > 14).
