Question

Choose the correct graph for the following inequality.
y ≤ 2x - 4

Answer 1

Please Help!!

Answer 2

The solid line means that y can actually assume values that are equal to 2x - 4 where as the dashed line means that y can be anything having a value less that 2x - 4

If y <= 2x -4 then every value of y less than a certain value should be shaded.

For instance, if x = 4, then
y<=2*4-4
y <= 4

So which graph do you think it is?

Answer 3

hold on a sec, lets see...

Answer 4

For example

Answer 5

err, are the kinds of lines of any significance? Like, one is dotted the other, ,,,,,

Answer 6

sorry, a little confused

Answer 7

If it's dotted it means y can't be that value. In the picture of y < 4, it's dotted because y can't actually equal 4, it can equal everything up to it. If it was a solid line y could also be 4

Answer 8

i think its either a or c?

Answer 9

It is one of them :)

If y is less than x + 3 then it is shaded 'under' the line y = x + 3

Answer 10

u lost me

Answer 11

I think its C

Answer 12

That's correct

Answer 13

yay!! Thanks for taking Soo much time to help.

Answer 14
