Part1. Is the graph of y<-x the same as the graph of -y

OpenStudy (sshayer):

first draw the graph y=-x

OpenStudy (sshayer):

y=-x or -y=x is the same line. But in case of inequality difference is of region .

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

y<-x multiply or divide both sides by -1. What do you get?

OpenStudy (mertsj):

-y<x means y>-x Clearly not the same as y<-x

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

Do you get exactly -y<x? Remember that when you multiply or divide both sides by a negative, the sign flips direction

OpenStudy (will.h):

I agree with @sshayer If it's y<-x the it will shade to the left because the leading coefficient is positive. if it's -y<x then it will shade to the right since the leading coefficient is negative. you can add these data to a graphic system and see for your self and then describe the situation in your own words. may i suggest GeoGebra.org. it is a great free system.
