I could really use someones help please :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The graph below represents which system of inequalities? A.) y > 2x - 3 y > -x - 3 B.) y < 2x - 2 y < -x + 3 C.) y ≤ 2x - 2 y > -x + 3 D.) None of the above

OpenStudy (harsimran_hs4):

1st step: write the equations of 2 lines from the graph, can you?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you know that one line is dashed and has a negative slope with a y-intercept of 3, and the other line is solid and has a positive slope with a y-intercept of -2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You can figure it out systematically, but you can kind of just work it out by looking at the graph too.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im not really all that good with this so its really confusing to me

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\(\le\) or \(\ge\) = solid line \(<\) or \(>\) = dashed line negative slope = coefficient before \(x\) is negative positive slope = coefficient before \(x\) is positive \(y=mx+b\) \(b\) = y-intercept y-intercept is the place on the y-axis where the line crosses analyze your graph accordingly

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Line #1: dashed negative slope y-intercept = 3 meaning it is \(>\) or \(<\) , has a "\(-\)" sign before the coefficient on \(x\) and it has a \(+3\) at the end. Line #2: solid positive slope y-intercept= -2 meaning it is \(\le\) or \(\ge\), has a positive number before \(x\), and has a \(-2\) at the end. and that's about is much as I will dumb it down for you

I understand better now i can take it from here :) thank you very much!!
