the > has no line under it

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

so you're dealing with a dashed line

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

you just need to check if the origin is included in the shaded region or not.

OpenStudy (gabylovesyou):

ok........ How would i know that?? :)

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

y > 2x + 6 0 > 2(0)+6 ... Plug in (0,0) Then simplify

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

If you get a true inequality, then (0,0) is in the shaded region

OpenStudy (gabylovesyou):

what did u get?? i got falseeee

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

it is false, nice job

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

so (0,0) is NOT in the shaded region

OpenStudy (gabylovesyou):

but did u get false??????

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

gaby - check out your last post after you have finished here

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

y > 2x + 6 0 > 2(0) + 6 0 > 0 + 6 0 > 6 which is false
