OpenStudy (heyitslizzy13):

the 3x+11

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

then we can say that \(\bf 3xx+11 > 8\) solve for "x" :)

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

hmm i got 2 x's there for a reason anyhow \(\bf 3x+11 > 8\)

OpenStudy (heyitslizzy13):

i don't understand how to do that /:

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

have you covered simplifying linear equations yet?

OpenStudy (heyitslizzy13):

no :/

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

well, the way you'd do a linear INEQUALITY, is the same way you'd do it for a linear equation 3x + 11 > 8 subtract 11 from both sides first, left and right hand sides then divide both sides by 3

x> -1 ?

OpenStudy (heyitslizzy13):

OH MY GOD I GOT THE ANSWER THANK YOU SO MUCHSA FAUIWEFH,EA

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

yw

OpenStudy (heyitslizzy13):

Can you help me on one more, please?

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

ok

OpenStudy (heyitslizzy13):

what is the slope of a line hat is parallel to the line whose equation is y - 10 = -4(x + 1)

OpenStudy (heyitslizzy13):

that*

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

y - 10 = -4(x + 1) <--- solve for "y" what do you get?

OpenStudy (heyitslizzy13):

y= -4x + 6 ?

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

\(\large y - 10 = -4(x + 1)\implies y=-4x-4+10\implies \begin{array}{llll} y=&{\color{red}{ -4}}x+6\\ &\quad \uparrow \\ &slope \end{array}\)

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

y= -4x + 6 ? \(\checkmark\)

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

\(\large {y - 10 = -4(x + 1) \\ \quad \\ \implies y=-4x-4+10\implies \begin{array}{llll} y=&{\color{red}{ -4}}x+6\\ &\quad \uparrow \\ &slope \end{array}}\)

OpenStudy (heyitslizzy13):

ohhh! okay thank you so much :)
