Question

can someone please help me with this math question? please I'll fan and give a medal...

Answer 1

show the steps to graph this equation
x - y <= -8

Answer 2

wait I'm not sure how to solve for y @Mertsj

Answer 3

so x-y<= -8-x?

Answer 4

so
-1*-y>-x-8*-1?

Answer 5

@Mertsj

Answer 6

okay then what? is there another step?

Answer 7

y=x+8?

Answer 8

okay done

Answer 9

@Mertsj the line should be solid because the inequality sign has an "or equal to" part to it

Answer 10

oh okay

Answer 11

@Mertsj all of your comments were deleted... I can't see any of them

Answer 12

Jim will help you now.

Answer 13

oh okay, well thank you for helping me get a start

Answer 14

@jim_thompson5910 would you mind helping again?

Answer 15

I'm not sure what was wrong other than the dotted line. No need to delete the comments

Answer 16

I'm not sure...

Answer 17

where did you leave off? which part did you get to again?

Answer 18

y>x+8

Answer 19

it's \(\Large y \ge x+8\) ? or \(\Large y > x+8\) ?

Answer 20

just > no line under it

Answer 21

why do you have `x - y <= -8` then?

Answer 22

<= means there's a line under the inequality

Answer 23

oh I don't know, that was just one of my answer choices... I would think my teacher would put the line under it if she meant for it to have one :/

Answer 24

then there shouldn't be a line under the inequality in the original problem

Answer 25

so the line needs to be dashed?

Answer 26

<< show the steps to graph this equation
x - y <= -8 >> so this mean x-y equal or less than -8

from this result y >= x+8 for x=-8 you get y=0 and for x= 1 result y= -7
- so now graph these points with coordinates (-8,0) and (1,-7)
