Question

Algebra 1: please please help, I only have 5 minutes left and I have no idea how to get the answer

A system of linear inequalities is shown below.

x - y > 3
y + x ≤ 2

Describe the steps to graph the solution set to the system of inequalities.

Answer 1

1. Draw the graph of x-y = 3 (i.e. the line y=x-3). Since x-y > 3, you will shade the region on the graph above this line.
2. Draw the graph of y+x = 2 (i.e. the line y=-x+2). Since y+x ≤ 2, you will shade the region on the graph below this line (and include this line).

Find their overlapping regions, and you should find the solution set to this question.

Answer 2

Thank you soo much!

Answer 3

You're welcome.
