@Phi

OpenStudy (help_people):

Which of the following points lie in the solution set to the following system of inequalities? y less than or greater to x - 5 y less than or greater to -x - 4 (1, 10) (-1, 10) (10, 1) (1, -10)

OpenStudy (help_people):

@phi

OpenStudy (help_people):

I have no clue with this one.

OpenStudy (phi):

less than or greater to ? are you sure it's not \( \le \) ??

OpenStudy (help_people):

what i mean by less than or greater to is less than or equal to srry

OpenStudy (phi):

it makes me think your previous problem where you chose "none of the above" is really choice c.

OpenStudy (help_people):

?

OpenStudy (help_people):

@phi

OpenStudy (help_people):

why @phi

OpenStudy (phi):

because nobody would write less than or greater to in a text book (unless it is a really bad text)

OpenStudy (help_people):

no it was my fault the second options is correct this is correct: |dw:1428076833975:dw|

OpenStudy (help_people):

i wrote and i put it in incorrectly that was my fault that is why i corrected myself in the text it says : \[\le this \]

OpenStudy (phi):

so is this the question \[ y\le x - 5 \\ y \le -x - 4 \] (1, 10) (-1, 10) (10, 1) (1, -10) fist check (1,10) replace x with 1: y <= 1-5 or y <= -4 is 10 (the y value in (1,10) < = -4 . no 10 is bigger. so (1,10) does not work

OpenStudy (help_people):

may we just continue with the question @phi

OpenStudy (phi):

Yes, I did the first choice, and it did not work. It's your turn to check (-1,10)

OpenStudy (help_people):

second does not work 10 is greater than -6

OpenStudy (phi):

ok

OpenStudy (help_people):

c works 5 is greater than 1

OpenStudy (help_people):

d does not work 10 is greater than -4, so c is my answer

OpenStudy (help_people):

@phi

OpenStudy (phi):

ok, but if has to work for both inequalities.

OpenStudy (help_people):

@phi am i right c is correct

OpenStudy (help_people):

oh then c is not correct

OpenStudy (help_people):

a is not right 10 is bigger than -5

OpenStudy (help_people):

b is not right 10 is bigger than -9

OpenStudy (phi):

the 2nd inequality gives -10 - 4 = -14 1 is not smaller than -14, so c does not work check choice d

OpenStudy (phi):

(1, -10) notice y is -10 not 10

OpenStudy (help_people):

c is not right 10 is bigger than -11

OpenStudy (phi):

can you check d?

OpenStudy (help_people):

10 is bigger than 9

OpenStudy (phi):

can you post your the arithmetic ?

OpenStudy (help_people):

for d @phi so d ?

OpenStudy (help_people):

what do you think

OpenStudy (phi):

Please show your work for d

OpenStudy (help_people):

\[y \le-1+10=9\]

OpenStudy (help_people):

@phi

OpenStudy (phi):

we check (1,-10) that means check x=1 in the first inequality y < = x - 5 y <= 1 - 5 ? y <= -4 now look at the 2nd number in (1 , -10) is -10 less than or equal to -4 ?

OpenStudy (phi):

is -10 degrees colder (less than) -4 degrees ?

OpenStudy (phi):

now check y<= -x - 4 -10 <= -1 - 5 ? -10 <= -6 ?

OpenStudy (help_people):

less than @phi

OpenStudy (help_people):

@phi you still here please finish this up with me

Nnesha (nnesha):

replace x and y by one of answer choices if statements is right than that is your answer

OpenStudy (help_people):

i did already look at what phi said so the answer is choice d?

Nnesha (nnesha):

btw i'm ot taking long time to repl that's bec of this lag >.<taking too much time to load the page all i can say sorry

Nnesha (nnesha):

\(\color{blue}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @phi now check y<= -x - 4 -10 <= -1 - 5 ? -10 <= -6 ? \(\color{blue}{\text{End of Quote}}\) is it right ?? -10 is less than -6 ?? or greater than - 6

OpenStudy (help_people):

less than

Nnesha (nnesha):

okay when you substitute (1,-10) in2 first one \(\color{blue}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @phi we check (1,-10) that means check x=1 in the first inequality y < = x - 5 y <= 1 - 5 ? y <= -4 now look at the 2nd number in (1 , -10) is -10 less than or equal to -4 ? \(\color{blue}{\text{End of Quote}}\) -10 less than or equal to -4 ?? is it right ?

OpenStudy (help_people):

less than

Nnesha (nnesha):

\(\color{blue}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @phi now check y<= -x - 4 -10 <= -1 - 5 ? -10 <= -6 ? \(\color{blue}{\text{End of Quote}}\) \[-10 \le -(1) - 4\] -10 <= -5 *

OpenStudy (help_people):

so the second one is the answer

OpenStudy (help_people):

yes.... WHICH ONE IS RIGHT? YOU HAD ME WAITING FOR 38 MINUTES FOR YOU TO COME! IS IT THE SECOND ONE OR NTO

OpenStudy (help_people):

@Nnesha

Nnesha (nnesha):

2nd one |dw:1428081765279:dw|is that statement correct ??
