help please What is the graph of the inequality? -3y ≥ 6x -3

Recall what the graph a line is first,\[y=mx+b\]so first you need to put the function you have in that form, remembering the inequality, now also remember, that when you divide or multiply by a negative number, that you need to flip the inequality sign the other way, so for instance\[-2x \ge 10\rightarrow x \le -5\]so solve for y like that and tell me what you get
i put B as the answer already, im not sure if im going to get it right
That is indeed correct, i just hope that you understand why
yes thank you, you are very helpful
could you help with one more?
@Embryo
sure
im guessing B
nope nope, so to answer this, you need to know what the general equation of absolute value is\[y=\left| x-h \right|+k\]so in this, h means how far to the right you go, and k is how far up you go, the trick here, is that you look at your graph, find where the vertex is, in this case, your vertex is (5,5), so what you plug into that general formula is k=5, and h=5\[(h,k)=(5,5)\]
So would it have been C?
not quite yet, you also need to look at the inequality, since your're shading in everything that is under the graph, the inequality should be less than or equal to\[y \le \left| x-h \right|+k\]try plugging in the values i showed you earlier, the vertex of your graph, which was\[(5,5)=(h,k)\]and remember to keep the subtraction between the x and h
well i got it wrong already, i dont really need to figure out the answer anymore :/ lol but thank you!
