OpenStudy (camper4834):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-5 positive 1

OpenStudy (camper4834):

oh snap yeah!

OpenStudy (camper4834):

so put it into |x|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the inside is negative?

OpenStudy (camper4834):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and the outside is positive or the oposite?

OpenStudy (camper4834):

you got it right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y=Ix-5I +1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

?

OpenStudy (camper4834):

perfect so now we add the inequality sign

OpenStudy (camper4834):

y is above and greater greater than sign is what

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its y greater than

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y<Ix-5I+1

OpenStudy (camper4834):

nope

OpenStudy (anonymous):

>

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i always mess up with this

OpenStudy (camper4834):

i know its kinda silly but i use this too when i forget

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ill remember the alligator next time

OpenStudy (camper4834):

i'll ask questions later but now is the time for math

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hahah okay

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so its y>Ix-5I+1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the alligators eating the y because its greater XD

OpenStudy (camper4834):

yeah but the line isn't dotted so its really like

OpenStudy (anonymous):

greater than or equal to

OpenStudy (camper4834):
