Maybe do something like
y ≥ y
hero (hero):
Then set
1/3x+1 ≥ -3x - 4
Then solve for x.
That would help you get started at least
OpenStudy (anonymous):
x would equal 10/3 rite
hero (hero):
Not exactly
OpenStudy (anonymous):
would it be a negative then

No, you made a mistake somehow
OpenStudy (anonymous):
@hero does x =3/2
hero (hero):
x = -3/2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yea that's wat i meant to say
OpenStudy (anonymous):
then wat do i do next

find y
OpenStudy (anonymous):
how do i find y
hero (hero):
Plug the value for x you found back into one of the original equations.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
is y -1/2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
when i plug the -3/2 into the second problem i got a different answer which was 1/4 now i dont kno which one is correct

y is 1/2, not -1/2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok then i think i just put it in wrong in the calculator then how is it supposed to look on a graph
OpenStudy (anonymous):
could u please show me how it looks on a graph
hero (hero):
You're not done yet
OpenStudy (anonymous):
wat
wat else do i got to do

You have to plot that point on the graph along with the dotted lines
OpenStudy (anonymous):
all i kno is that i have to graph it but i suck at graphing and can u show me how it looks on a graph
hero (hero):
To graph it, find the x and y intercepts
OpenStudy (anonymous):
how would i find that
hero (hero):
replace x = 0 in both equations, then solve for y.
next, replace y = 0, in both equations, then solve for x

let me try that
OpenStudy (anonymous):
y is -4
hero (hero):
Which means one of the points is (0,-4). Find the rest of them.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
how would i get the x with the second problem i put the 0 in for y then i subtracted 0 to 1 then my final product was 1/3x≤1 thats wat i got
hero (hero):
What happens if you multiply both sides by 3?

OpenStudy (anonymous):
how would that look
hero (hero):
It would look like
x≤ 3
hero (hero):
I bet you haven't even been keeping up with the signs all this time
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no
OpenStudy (anonymous):
nd were did u get x≤3 from

How do you think x was isolated?
hero (hero):
You have 1/3x ≤ 1
If you multiply both sides by 3, the 1/3 cancels, leaving just x on the left side. 3 and 1/3 are inverses of each other. Are they not?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yea
OpenStudy (anonymous):
but wen i did that i got x≤4
hero (hero):
That's impossible.

well im lost
hero (hero):
You must have added instead of multiply
hero (hero):
I said multiply both sides by 3 not add 3 to both sides.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
wait i just noticed that the problem would look like this 0≤x+3 rite
hero (hero):
negative

negative wat
hero (hero):
negative, meaning "no"
