The first one.
OpenStudy (ipwnbunnies):
First, you should be able to figure out the equations of the dotted lines. That's whittle down a few choices.

so its not a or b?

All the y intercepts and x intercepts add up. And they aren't equal to or greater than, so therefore they have a dotted line. To test the direction of the coloured area, you need to sub in the origin and see if it works.

its not a or b, right?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
It is A
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the answer is a?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yes.

its question number 2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
It would be B.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
did you look at the other options?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
The only difference is that the second equation shows that y is lesser than or equal to and the answer A says that the second equation is y is greater than or equal to.

oh okay I get it so if it is > I shade up < down?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
it would have to be B. You just need to figure out what direction the coloring will be. For that you substitute y=0 and y=0. If it makes sense, then the graph will color the area that the origin is located.
