plug them in and then tell me which one you think it is

anonymous · Answer

how

sweetburger · Answer

you have a y and a x value and you have coordinates that represent (x,y) plug those in and see which ones work

anonymous · Answer

i dont get it

texaschic101 · Answer

each of your answer choices are in (x,y) form

y - 2x <= -3

take your first answer choice...(2,4)..x = 2 and y = 4
now sub 2 in for x and 4 in for y into your equation to see if its true
4 - 2(2) <= -3
4 - 4 <= -3
0 <= -3
now is 0 less then or equal to -3. No it is not. Therefore, it is not the correct answer

understand ? Now just sub your other answer choices into the equation and whichever one is true, is the correct answer

can there be more then 1 answer ?

anonymous · Answer

no

texaschic101 · Answer

do you have the inequality sign written correctly ?

anonymous · Answer

yes

texaschic101 · Answer

(1,-1)
y - 2x <= -3
-1 - 2(1) <= -3
-1 - 2 <= -3
-3 <= -3 (correct) -- this is an answer

(3,4)
y - 2x <= -3
4 - 2(3) <= -3
4 - 6 <= -3
-2 <= -3 (correct) -- this is an answer

first one is not...second one is not....you have 2 answers

texaschic101 · Answer

wait..I messed up...I was looking at the problem wrong.....answer is (1,-1) not (3,4)...sorry

texaschic101 · Answer

because with (3,4).....-2 is not less then -3...it is greater

anonymous · Answer

can you help me with two more please

x <= 2.....when you have x = a number, then the line is vertical. There is an equal sign in the problem, meaning the line is solid. Less then means shading to the left.
your correct graph is : A

anonymous · Answer

there mixed up options so option D

texaschic101 · Answer

yes..option D

anonymous · Answer

I have one more

lets have it :)

3y - 5x >= -6

3y = 5x - 6
y = 5/3 - 2
slope is 5/3
y int = (0,-2)

x int :
3(0) - 5x = -6
-5x = -6
x = 6/5 or for graphing purposes, x = 1 1/5

solid line because of equal sign
greater then means shading above the line

graph is : option A
