Hint: the y coordinates are the same, so you have a horizontal line

anonymous · Answer

so wouldjt it be C than?

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

horizontal lines have a slope of 1/2 ??

anonymous · Answer

my bads its 0

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

yep

anonymous · Answer

so thats my answer than right?

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

yep

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

that is correct

anonymous · Answer

I have another question real quick:

which point is contained in the graph of y>|x-2|-1?

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

if the y coordinates are the same, then you have a horizontal line with a slope of 0

anonymous · Answer

I have another question real quick:

which point is contained in the graph of y>|x-2|-1?

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

ok what are your points

anonymous · Answer

well here are the multiple choices to chose from:

A. 2,-1
B. 2, -2
C. 3,0
D. 2,0

anonymous · Answer

I got A for my answer

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

let's find out if that's correct

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

y>|x-2|-1

-1>|2-2|-1 ... plug in x = 2 and y = -1

-1 > |0| - 1

-1 > 0 - 1

-1 > -1

is that true?

anonymous · Answer

no lol maybe its B then

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

plug in the coordinates and simplify

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

if it's false, then it's not the answer

anonymous · Answer

hmm can you give me the problem to solve?

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

y>|x-2|-1 

-2>|2-2|-1 ... plug in x = 2 and y = -2

I'll let you finish

anonymous · Answer

i got no solution for that answer

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

you should have gotten -2 > -1 which is also false

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

so B isn't an answer either

anonymous · Answer

lol actually i think its C.  kinda of a wild guess

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

ok what do you get when you plug in x = 3 and y = 0

anonymous · Answer

no solution

anonymous · Answer

wait sorry hold on

anonymous · Answer

ya, I got no solution... 3>|0-2|-1

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

what does the right side turn into?

anonymous · Answer

a possitive

anonymous · Answer

right?

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

|0-2|-1 = |-2|-1 = ???

anonymous · Answer

always true

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

|0-2|-1 = |-2|-1 = 2 - 1 = 1

anonymous · Answer

? so my answer would be D!!! right?

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

oh wait, you plugged them in wrong

but yes, your answer is D

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

somehow you managed to eliminate C, but not sure how you did that

anonymous · Answer

i just solved wat u gave me:)

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

i gotcha
