Answer 3

I don't understand how you get the x or y numbers I know that y is 0 to find x and x is 0 to find y. but how do you get the other points.

Answer 4

pick up some values for x . it could be any value. and then try to find y-intercept

Answer 5

Just try to watch the video pls =)

Answer 6

you are not trying to graph an equation, but rather, an inequation or inequality.

the set of points that satisfy as a solution is much bigger and covers an area of the graph that is greater than just an equality.

Answer 7

the first step would be to define when x=y; then you will be able to better judge when x is less than y

Answer 8

since the rule provided state that we should know when x = y; then all the points (x,y) of the form (y,y) would satisfy that rule

Answer 9

when y = 0; (0,0)
when y = 2; (2,2)
when y = -4; (-4,-4)
when y = 92; (92,92)

Answer 10

I am so confused. so on your graph your line would be dotted because it is not equal to. Right? So how would you plot it 2,0 4,0 and the shaded under the dotted line?

Answer 11

dotted is correct

Answer 12

there are 2 sides to the line; one is greater and one is less than

a good test to determine the "truth" value of a side is to pick a point that is easy to play with, and see if it makes the statement true or false

Answer 13

in the statement: x < y ; how does 5,0 act?
5 < 0 ; this statement is false, so this side of the line is false
