Hey, I need help badly!

OpenStudy (dumbsearch2):

OpenStudy (lyrae):

I which point does the curve and the line intersect?

OpenStudy (dumbsearch2):

1, 1?

OpenStudy (lyrae):

Yep, and that's your answer. When sloving graphically the solution to any system of equations (linear or nonlinear) are points where the function curves, lines etc. intersect.

OpenStudy (lyrae):

are all the points* Nonlinear systems usually have several solutions.

OpenStudy (dumbsearch2):

Thank you! :) And this?

OpenStudy (lyrae):

Np :) All points in the green shaded area, so you'll have to check if the the points given in the answers options are in that area or not.

OpenStudy (lyrae):

And it looks like (1,1) is the only one present there.

OpenStudy (dumbsearch2):

So I'm correct! Yupppeee :-)

OpenStudy (dumbsearch2):

It's D here, right? @Lyrae

OpenStudy (lyrae):

Yup :)

OpenStudy (dumbsearch2):

@Lyrae For this I graph each one, rite?

OpenStudy (lyrae):

Yes that's one way to do it.

OpenStudy (dumbsearch2):

I tried, but too many match.

OpenStudy (lyrae):

You can also insert the x and y-values of each point into inequalities and see one of them one (or several) of them are violated.

OpenStudy (dumbsearch2):

Ahh! Will do. Plug in, eh?

OpenStudy (dumbsearch2):

@Lyrae Aye, you're awesome. What's your name?

OpenStudy (lyrae):

Carl

OpenStudy (lyrae):

And thx :)

OpenStudy (dumbsearch2):

So the answer is B?

OpenStudy (dumbsearch2):

It was True for each of the equations when I plugged in for B. (-4, -15)

OpenStudy (dumbsearch2):

Thanks again, Carl.

OpenStudy (lyrae):

Yup, that's what i got too. Anytime :)

OpenStudy (dumbsearch2):

I don't know what to do for this problem @Lyrae

OpenStudy (lyrae):

It's a point outside the shaded area, and not any of the red lines.

OpenStudy (lyrae):

For the previous one i noticed there are actually another point witch satisfies all the inequalities (-4,-4).

OpenStudy (dumbsearch2):

So was it B. (-4, -15) for that one or C. (-4, -4)

OpenStudy (lyrae):

The assignment also mentions that you have to select a point on a vertice.

OpenStudy (dumbsearch2):

So?

OpenStudy (lyrae):

This means that you have to check where a bunch of lines intersect.

OpenStudy (lyrae):

y = 3x-5 y = -1/2*x + 2 => x = 2, y = 1 y = -4 y = 3x-5 => x = 1/3, y = -4 y = -4 y = -1/2*x + 2 => x = 12, y = -4 None of the x, y pairs maches a point in the answers. |dw:1418939854308:dw| Not any of the point are one the lines either.

OpenStudy (lyrae):

Therefore it can't be any of those two points (B or C). And when looking again you see that (-4, 4) also is a valid point, and it's on the the line (boundary) of the second inequality. x= -4 y = -1/2 x + 2 = -1/2 * -4 + 2 = 4 => x = -4, y = 4
