Question

Which of the following inequalities matches the graph?

Answer 1

y >/= 3x - 5

y < 3x - 5

y < 1/3x - 5

The correct inequality is not listed.

Answer 2

No Equal sign(< or >)... Dashed Line
Equal sign(<= or >=)... Solid Line

Check which slope works best. Remember:\[\frac{ rise }{ run }\]

Answer 3

whats dashed and solid?

Answer 4

On your graph check to see which it is:
Dashed line is ---------
Solid line is a line with no gaps.

Answer 5

in this case its dashed??

Answer 6

Yep. Since Dashed line means there is no "equal to", you have these two options left:
y < 3x - 5
y < 1/3x - 5
So check which slope works.

Answer 7

How?

Answer 8

Test each slope using rise/run.
example: 3/1...start at any point on the line and "rise" 3 units and "run" 1 unit to the right.

Answer 9

So which works?

Answer 10

1/3 or 3/1

Answer 11

mmm

Answer 12

-_- idk

Answer 13

Okay 3/1(same thing as 3)...Start at point (0, 5). Go up 3 spaces. Then, go right one space...Are you still on the dashed line?

Answer 14

yes

Answer 15

well in the shaded part lol

Answer 16

Great! So that's the correct slope; 3. So the answer is: y < 3x - 5
