Question

Above is the graph for y ≥ 5x+3 and y ≤ 5x - 3. What is the solution of this system?

Answer 1

set them equal to one another. So 5x+3 = 5x-3, that will give you an x-coordinate. Use that x coordinate and plug it back into one of the equations to get your y.

Answer 2

The answer is the intersection of the two areas....

Answer 3

Thank you both.

Answer 4

wait, need more help.

Answer 5

what else do you need help with???

Answer 6

I don't understand it anymore.. I confused myself.. long story..

Answer 7

ok so anything in the double shaded area is the answer

Answer 8

so.. like.. any coordinate..?

Answer 9

but over here, nothing is double shaded, so there is no solution

Answer 10

and the answer is any coordinate in the double shaded area

Answer 11

get it?

Answer 12

@Keridavis ?

Answer 13

so (-2,-1) ? is one?

Answer 14

no there is no solution because the two shaded areas are not intersecting

Answer 15

so.. no solution..?

Answer 16

yes
