Which system of inequalities is graphed below?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A, 5x – 2y < 10 2x – y > B, 5x – 2y =<10 2x – y=> C, 5x – 2y > 10 2x – y < 3 D, 5x – 2y => 10 2x – y 3=<

I see y-intercepts of -4 and -6 respectively

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Do you know how to find the slope?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[m=\frac{\triangle y}{\triangle x}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Once you have your two slopes, the blue region is less than or equal to the line that has a y-intercept of -6. The red region is greater than or equal to the line that has a y-intercept of -4.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It looks like you're going to have to change them from y=mx+b form to y-mx=b or mx-y=-b

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Just so you can see the answer easier. Remember if you multiply or divide by a - # you'll need to flip the inequality, ok?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok, thank you.

np, hope this helps you find your answer promptly :-)
