Question

Choose the graph which represents the solution to the inequality:
1/2x + 8 ≤ 3

Answer 1

@welshfella

Answer 2

have you got a choice of graphs?

Answer 3

i do but i cant post it
its one of the choices that when i hover over with the mouse it gets bigger

Answer 4

well lets first simplify the equation
if we subtract 8 from both sides we get
1/2 x ≤ -5

can you draw the graph of y = 1/2 x

Answer 5

it will be a staright line and will pass through the origin because when x = 0 , y = 0 and it will have a slope of 1/2

Answer 6

as in now

Answer 7

?

Answer 8

like graph it now?

Answer 9

I cant draw it somewhow

Answer 10

ohhhhh. this isnt a line graph like x,y its a number line

Answer 11

my options are number lines

Answer 12

sorry for the confusion

Answer 13

- the area including and below y = -5

Answer 14

my options are number lines not graphs

Answer 15

when it says graph it means graph on a number line @welshfella

Answer 16

@Janu16

Answer 17

oh ok

Answer 18

lets solve the inequality

1/2 x + 8 <= 3
subtract 8 from both sides
1/2 x = -5
x = -5 * 2 = -10

Answer 19

the line graph should look like this
