Question

Choose the system of inequalities that matches the graph below.

coordinate plane with a dashed line through points (0, –1) and (1, 4). Another dashed line passes through points (0, 2) and (1, –1). There is yellow shading above the first dashed line and blue shading above the second dashed line. The shading turns green in the overlap.

y greater than or equal to 5x – 1
y greater than or equal to –3x + 2

y less than or equal to 5x – 1
y less than or equal to –3x + 2

y > 5x – 1
y > –3x + 2

y < 5x – 1
y < –3x + 2

Answer 1

C
The equation of that first dashed line is y = 5x -1 since the y - intercept is -1 and the slope is 5 and using y =mx + b
Similarly, the other equation is y = -3x + 2. We want to be above those 2 lines so we want y >

Answer 2

Thanks alot, I was having alot of trouble with this question.
