The graph below represents which system of inequalities? y > 2x − 3 y > −x − 3 y < 2x − 2 y < −x + 3 y ≤ 2x − 2 y > −x + 3 None of the above

please help

please

OpenStudy (danjs):

all the answers are in y = mx+b form, b is where they cross the y-axis. what is the y-intercept of the dotted line?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3

OpenStudy (danjs):

yes, the line is shaded below and dotted, so it is 'less than', y < m*x + 3

OpenStudy (danjs):

just need the slope m, for each increase in 1 x unit, y decreases by 1, so slope is -1

OpenStudy (danjs):

y < -1*x +3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

none of the answers have -1 in them. Is it D?

OpenStudy (danjs):

oh, -1*x is the same as -x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so its not A or D.

OpenStudy (danjs):

Are those in groups of 2, or can you chose any 2 equations...both are in there

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A: y > 2x − 3 y > −x − 3 B:y < 2x − 2 y < −x + 3 C: y ≤ 2x − 2 y > −x + 3 D: None of the above

OpenStudy (danjs):

the other line has a y intercept of -2 and a slope of 2, and is shaded under and solid \[y \le 2x -2\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

SO its c

OpenStudy (danjs):

Solid line means the answers can include the points on the line, so it can also be equals

OpenStudy (anonymous):

C?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@DanJS c?

OpenStudy (danjs):

hmm, actually it is hard to tell what side the dotted line is shaded on... is the green area the overlapping region, or the yellow

OpenStudy (danjs):

probably the green, so yeah C

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Both, the colors are simply shading in the space between the two lines.

OpenStudy (danjs):

one of the areas is shaded by both lines

OpenStudy (danjs):

i would say C, the dotted line is shaded above , so it is y >

OpenStudy (danjs):

green is darker, so probably the overlaping region

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The rason I chose C was because it is the only answer with: y≤2x−2

OpenStudy (danjs):

yeah say C, the graph is just wrong, they are missing some of the single shaded area

OpenStudy (danjs):

one of the white triangles should be single shaded by the dotted line
