Question

Graph the following linear inequality:

y <= 7 x -1

Answer 1

The plots I got are: y=-1 & x=-1/7?

Answer 2

Answer 3

So Close! :D
0 = 7x - 1
+1 +1
1 = 7x
/7 /7
x = 1/7

Answer 4

I did it that way too, but i don't know why I choose the negative one lol

Answer 5

How do I graph fractions? :/

Answer 6

hmmmm...
there's another way to get an easier point to graph...
you know how in y = mx + b
m = slope?
so in this case slope = 7
which means that for every time you move to the right one, it goes up 7

Answer 7

so is 7 the rise or run?

Answer 8

slope = rise over run = 7 over 1
so 7 is the rise :)

Answer 9

ok, so I go from y=-1, then go 7 up and 1 over?

Answer 10

yes :)
you have points (0, -1) and (1, 6)

Answer 11

Thank you, next question.
