Can someone please help me on two big questions!?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Alright, @Ms-Brains I don't know the formulas or whatever, but I've found it is quite easy to make up your way through math

MsBrains (ms-brains):

alright, so you wanna help?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yea, I think I might be able to

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Alright, so I'm using the graphing calculator Desmos, so I might be incorrect.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Now, if you try graphing the letter x, then it looks like this

OpenStudy (anonymous):

https://www.desmos.com/calculator/svt6mr8kzm

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Ms-Brains If you look at that, you will see that the y-intercept is 0, and the slope is always 1.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hmm... i don't really understand how this happened, but the green shading looks like this, when you add he +3y and the <= 6 part https://www.desmos.com/calculator/lgdhrnglfs

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Ms-Brains You are there, correct?

MsBrains (ms-brains):

Yeah! If you don't know how to do this, it's okay! I rather make sure it's correct. Than just get it done ;P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Alright, it's been a while since I've done this. Quick question, has your course instructions covered anything like this before? I'll try to help as much as i can

MsBrains (ms-brains):

A little bit, they didn't really go in to detail about it.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

shall i help?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmmm The inequality says <= to 6, so I am a bit confused on why the shading extends past 6 @Lovelarap If you can help, please feel free to join in

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You can probably do this better than me

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OK, first solve you equation for y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh and you can use this graph if you need visual aid @Lovelarap https://www.desmos.com/calculator/5l3yurvuui Good luck @Ms-Brains !

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[3y \le-x+6\] \[y \le -\frac{ 1 }{ 3 } +2\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry, -1/3x

MsBrains (ms-brains):

Here is a example my teacher gave us. If that helps. My problem should look simlar this

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it is just graph: \[y \le -\frac{ 1 }{ 3 }x+2\] It's solid because it is less than or equal to.

MsBrains (ms-brains):

Which should equal to x < -3(y-2) ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think so.

MsBrains (ms-brains):

How do I draw that on the Graph though. like in the example..?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Try https://mathway.com/. It will help with the graphs

MsBrains (ms-brains):

Okay.. So we got A figured out.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yep, now b

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you remeber your other post where i helped you with the graph?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

your line is It's solid because it is less than or equal to.

MsBrains (ms-brains):

Oh! alright

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Whenever it's equal to, it will always be solid

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what do you think of c? below or above the line?

MsBrains (ms-brains):

Wait.let me just write this down quickly.

MsBrains (ms-brains):

Is this how the graph should look?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes it!

MsBrains (ms-brains):

So On my paper, I circle the shade on the (2,) and (6,)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that's the x and y intercept

MsBrains (ms-brains):

Okay, Now, what should I write in the B part?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you can write: The line is is solid because it is less than or equal to.

MsBrains (ms-brains):

Okay, And C?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You could say: It is shaded below the line because it is less than.

MsBrains (ms-brains):

Awesome! I have 1 more problem I could use some help on.
