7 part question
so the key for these is to graph the equations as if the >, <, etc. signs were equal signs first
i already know part IV
then you would use the inequality symbols (>, <. etc.) to determine the line style and shaded area
okay so i would graph y=1/2x+6
yes
good, so y > (1/2)x + 6 if you have > or < you use a dashed line to indicate that the solutions do not include the line
[this is just an example of how it looks, this is not the solution]|dw:1510106990221:dw|
the > greater than symbol means you would shade all the area above the line
wait but what line is this
which line am i shading above
are we still on part I
oh whoops it's y < (1/2)x + 6 so it would be shading under the line y = (1/2)x + 6
anyway, I think it might be less overwhelming if you only consider one line at a time
but we are on part I still right
yes
okay so i would shade it like this right?
yes
but make sure you understand why it's being shaded the way it is
because of the < , > ssigns right?
I would suggest just graphing one inequality at a time to see what's going on
yes, that's correct
okay but woud i shae exactly like the graph
yes
no i would shade under the y 1/2 line because that is where all the points are common
right, you would shade the area where all of the colors overlap
okay now for the part on whether the lines i graphed they would be solid?
|dw:1510107652037:dw|
|dw:1510107665041:dw|
for any inequalities with > or < use a dashed line
for any inequalities with \[\le or \ge\] you would use a solid line
so all of them solid except for the y1/2 line
yes
did i shade it wrong? :S
for part I it is only asking for x = 0 and x = 12
just the lines
ugh im confused
yes, it's just asking you to graph x = 0 and x = 12 as if they were normal lines
okay so this is part I
right that's it
okay now for part II
would it be y1/2 dashed line and the rest solid
you have only graphed x = 0 and x = 12 up to this point so you would only answer the question for those two lines
solid?
good, so you would answer: the two lines in part I are solid
now for part III
i would graph what is given and just see where the colors overlap right?
yes. keep in mind you are only graphing x >= 0 and x <= 12 as stated in the directions.
good (make sure you only shade the part where it overlaps)
good
parts IV and V are pretty self explanatory just follow the directions
V the line should be dashed
and the shading is below
good
now for part VI
x + 3y = 12 1. find the y-intercept by finding y when x = 0 2. find the x-intercept by finding x when y = 0 3. connect the points from 1 and 2
y=4 x=12
good now connect (0,4) and (12,0) in a line
okay
part VII
so to determine the direction of shading I would suggest re-writing the equation in terms of y
so put in in y __ mx + b form
y=3x+12
try one more time
y=12x+3
let's start with x + 3y = 12 solve for y
y=x/3-4
good, so adding back the inequality sign we have y >= (x/3) - 4 which direction do we shade? above or below?
above
good, so shade above and that's part VII solved
okay part VIII
now you just put together all of the graphs you drew
|dw:1510110398441:dw| the final result should be like this, with that middle triangle-y section shaded in
okay thank you, i am in the middle of something i will need to come back to this something popped up
I am back
@Vocaloid
Okay so I just draw the lines of the equations given for VIII and shade in the region you showed
May I see what you've drawn?
nothing yet.. I am going to draw it now, I had to leave urgently
so didn't get to draw anything for VIII
oh, ok
this is my drawing
check the slope on that dotted line (the slope should be 1/2)
also the y-intercept on the solid line is incorrect (should be 0,4)
the line that goes across the dotted line
okay fixed that
sorry I was afk can I see what you have now?
it is alright
awesome, now just shade in the big triangle (don't include the left tip part since that's to the left of x = 0
just that triangle in the smack down middle right
yes
