Question

write an inequality for the graph.

Answer 1

@Directrix here

Answer 2

nop

Answer 3

The border reminds me of the absolute value graph. But, it has been moved up and over, I think.

Answer 4

ok so thats the answer or what lol

Answer 5

Courtesty of the "Wolf," here is how the parent graph looks.

Answer 6

Now, we have to figure out how to move it over 5 units and up 1.

After that, we have to figure whether it will be greater than or less than.

Answer 7

ok;)

Answer 8

Go here: http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=y+%3D+absolute+value+of+%28x-5%29

and look at how the graph shifted 5 units to the right with the equation y = abs(x - 5).

Your Task: When you get on that site, add 1 to the equation at the top and click on the "=" tab and see if the graph goes up or down one unit.

Then, post the link of the graph you made so that I can look at it. Okay? @cutegirl

Answer 9

@cutegirl

Please read the above ^^^^ so that we can knock out this problem. Okay?

Answer 10

is it right

Answer 11

No. You did not do what I asked.

Answer 12

Go here:

Answer 13

When you get there,

Your Task: When you get on that site,--> add 1 to the equation at the top and click on the "=" tab and see if the graph goes up or down one unit.

Answer 14

Then, post the address of the graph you made so that I can look at it. Okay?

Answer 15

Answer 16

Yes.

Answer 17

Does this graph you made (see attachment) look like the border of the one you are given in the problem?

Answer 18

yes!!!!!

Answer 19

Do you agree that the border segments in the given graph are solid and not dashed. As best I can tell, they are solid but we need to know. Tell me what your eyes see.

Answer 20

its solid?

Answer 21

Solid is what I am seeing.

Okay, one last thing. This is an inequality that includes the border so it will be

y ≥ absolute value of (x-5)+1

OR

y ≤ absolute value of (x-5)+1

Answer 22

a ?????

Answer 23

So, which one do you think? You can go back to that graph site and put in

y ≥ absolute value of (x-5)+1 and see what you get.

Answer 24

y ≥ | (x - 5)| + 1

See what that looks like.

Answer 25

so thats it ;))

Answer 26

That's what I think.

Answer 27

thank you so much;))))

Answer 28

You are welcome.
