Question

Write an inequality. For the graph

Answer 1

do you know how to find where that broken line touches the y-axis?

Answer 2

the y-axis is that bold vertical line

Answer 3

No I dont understand any of this please explain it to me

Answer 4

do you see the broken line?
do you see which number is being hit on the y-axis?

Answer 5

-2

Answer 6

And 3

Answer 7

as i said the y-axis is the bold vertical line

Answer 8

the broken line on touches one number on the y-axis

Answer 9

3

Answer 10

why do you say 3 and not 4?

Answer 11

did you post the write graph
because I see a broken line going through 4 on the y-axis

Answer 12

Oops I meant 4 sorry

Answer 13

ok so we know lines are in the form y=mx+b
where b=y intercept
and m=slope

Answer 14

you should found b

Answer 15

so we have y=mx+4 so far

Answer 16

Ok

Answer 17

you could find m by pluggin in another point on y=mx+b
are you can do that whole counting up thing and counting across thing since m=slope=rise/run

Answer 18

what point besides (0,4) do you see on the line?

Answer 19

-2

Answer 20

I see -2 on the x

Answer 21

that isn't a point
but i guess you are identifying the x-intercept
which is (-2,0)

Answer 22

so plug in (-2,0) into y=mx+4 to find m

Answer 23

that is replace y with 0 and x with -2

Answer 24

0=m(-2)+4
solve for m

Answer 25

Do I subtract 0 from both sides

Answer 26

no you are trying to solve for m not 0

Answer 27

subtracting 0 on both sides gives you the same equation 0=m(-2)+4

Answer 28

do you mean subtracting 4 on both sides

Answer 29

Ok I'm lost

Answer 30

m(-2)=-2m
you have 0=-2m+4

Answer 31

you should be able to solve this for m in two steps

Answer 32

do you know how to subtract 4 on both sides

Answer 33

do you know how to take 4 away from 0
and do you know how to take 4 from 4?
