is the solution set supposed to be: ?
y = x - 5
y = -x -4
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh sorry they both have <=
OpenStudy (strawberry17):
could you rewrite each with the correct signs?

thank you!:)
OpenStudy (strawberry17):
I got (10, 1) and (1, -10).
(10, 1) fits the first inequality and (1, -10) fits the second inequality but not vise versa.
So it must be both points?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes thank you so much!:)
OpenStudy (strawberry17):
ur welcome! :)
