which region?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im not sure, it just asks for what it says in the photo

OpenStudy (turingtest):

what is the y-intercept of the shaded line?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok first u got to find the eqn of the straight lines

OpenStudy (turingtest):

the bold line I mean not the dotted one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

7?

OpenStudy (turingtest):

right and bold means what? < or \(\le\) do you remember?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im not sure

OpenStudy (turingtest):

if it is either \(\le\) or \(\ge\) then it is a complete filed line if is is < or > it is dotted to show that the area does not include the line itself

OpenStudy (turingtest):

filled*

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so i know its either B or D then

OpenStudy (turingtest):

exactly :) how do we know which one? by asking "is it shaded above or below the line" if it is shaded below it is \(y\le...\) if it is shaded above it is \(y\ge...\) so now which is the answer?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well would the shading include the blue part?

OpenStudy (turingtest):

below the dark line with y-intercept 7 that we are talking about are the yellow and green regions

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so y≤

OpenStudy (turingtest):

exactly, so which is the answer?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

B!

OpenStudy (turingtest):

nice job :) and notice we didn't even need to check the other line! save yourself some work when possible ;)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks for the help! :)

OpenStudy (turingtest):

anytime!
