Plot the points and look for the point that does not fall into the shade or does fall on the dashed segment. See attachment.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

D doesnt fall in the shaded area

Directrix (directrix):

Correct. (2, -1) is on the dashed segment. Points located there are not part of the inequality solution.

Directrix (directrix):

Where does the boundary line cut the x-axis?

Directrix (directrix):

I thought the x-intercept is 1 but now it appears to be slightly to the left of one. What do you think? The line is falling so it has a negative slope. That fact eliminates 2 options.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so our two options are a and b

Directrix (directrix):

Right. Look at the graphs. Red or Blue looks like the given graph.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes they do

Directrix (directrix):

Do you think it is the red?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes i believe so

Directrix (directrix):

I agree. The red cuts the x axis close to 1 as does the given graph. The blue graph has x intercept somewhere near 6.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

agreed

OpenStudy (anonymous):

any ideas on the second question?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and is the answer to the first one A
