Which system of inequalities does the graph represent?

Vocaloid:

first you want to write the equations of the red lines and the blue lines, know how to do this?

smithm29:

maybe hold on

smithm29:

(Red) y=x+2 (Blue) y=-2x+3

Vocaloid:

good

Vocaloid:

they have the equations written in a different form, so we need to take yours and do some re-arranging

smithm29:

ok

Vocaloid:

let's take the red: y=x+2 if we subtract x from each side we get y - x = 2

Vocaloid:

the shaded part is above the red line so it becomes: y - x >= 2

smithm29:

ok

smithm29:

and its not a dashed line so is it greater than or equal to?

Vocaloid:

let's take your blue equation y=-2x+3 adding 2x to both sides gives us y + 2x = 3 the shaded area is below the blue line so it becomes y + 2x <= 3

Vocaloid:

yeah,

Vocaloid:

so you get y - x >= 2 y + 2x <= 3 so it's answer #2

smithm29:

oh ok thx
