Determine the type of boundary line and shading for the graph of the inequality y < 2x + 4 Dashed line with shading on the side that includes the origin. Solid line with shading on the side that does not include the origin. Dashed line with shading on the side that does not include the origin. Solid line with shading on the side that includes the origin.

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

what did you get

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'll give you a hint: Dashed line means greater than/less than. Solid like mean greater than or equal to/less than or equal to.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

*line

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so its either A or C

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

now plug in (x,y) = (0,0) and see if the inequality is true or false

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what is the y ?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

x = 0 y = 0

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

plug those two values in and simplify

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it A ?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

good, you got it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thanks can you help me with a few more ?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

sure

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Determine the type of boundary line and shading for the graph of the inequality -2x - y < -6 Dashed line with shading on the side that includes the origin. Solid line with shading on the side that does not include the origin. Dashed line with shading on the side that does not include the origin. Solid line with shading on the side that includes the origin.

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

is it solid or dashed

OpenStudy (anonymous):

dashed

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

now plug in (0,0)

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

if you get a true result, then the shaded region includes the origin

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so its A ?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

what did you get when you plugged in (0,0)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i didnt plug it in i dont understand how to with this one

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

plug in x = 0 and y = 0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-2,-6 ?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

-2x - y < -6 -2*(0) - y < -6 .... replace x with 0 -2*(0) - 0 < -6 ... replace y with 0 simplfiy

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

simplify*

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so is it C ?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

good

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Which of the following is not an equivalent form of the compound inequality x + 6 > 13 or x + 6 less than or greater to 11 x > 7 or x less than or greater to 5 x less than or greater to 5 or x > 7 A number line with an open circle on 7, a closed circle on 5, and shading in between. A number line with an open circle on 7, shading to the right, and a closed circle on 5, shading to the left.

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

solve x + 6 > 13 for x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how would i do that ?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

you need to isolate x

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

so how would you move that 6 over

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(Subtract 6)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

subtracting it
