Vocaloid:

so the key for these is to graph the equations as if the >, <, etc. signs were equal signs first

zarkam21:

i already know part IV

Vocaloid:

then you would use the inequality symbols (>, <. etc.) to determine the line style and shaded area

zarkam21:

okay so i would graph y=1/2x+6

Vocaloid:

yes

Vocaloid:

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

Vocaloid:

[this is just an example of how it looks, this is not the solution]|dw:1510106990221:dw|

Vocaloid:

the > greater than symbol means you would shade all the area above the line

zarkam21:

wait but what line is this

zarkam21:

which line am i shading above

zarkam21:

are we still on part I

Vocaloid:

oh whoops it's y < (1/2)x + 6 so it would be shading under the line y = (1/2)x + 6

Vocaloid:

anyway, I think it might be less overwhelming if you only consider one line at a time

zarkam21:

but we are on part I still right

Vocaloid:

yes

zarkam21:

okay so i would shade it like this right?

zarkam21:

Vocaloid:

yes

Vocaloid:

but make sure you understand why it's being shaded the way it is

zarkam21:

because of the < , > ssigns right?

Vocaloid:

I would suggest just graphing one inequality at a time to see what's going on

Vocaloid:

yes, that's correct

zarkam21:

okay but woud i shae exactly like the graph

Vocaloid:

yes

zarkam21:

no i would shade under the y 1/2 line because that is where all the points are common

Vocaloid:

right, you would shade the area where all of the colors overlap

zarkam21:

okay now for the part on whether the lines i graphed they would be solid?

Vocaloid:

|dw:1510107652037:dw|

Vocaloid:

|dw:1510107665041:dw|

Vocaloid:

for any inequalities with > or < use a dashed line

Vocaloid:

for any inequalities with \[\le or \ge\] you would use a solid line

zarkam21:

so all of them solid except for the y1/2 line

Vocaloid:

yes

zarkam21:

zarkam21:

did i shade it wrong? :S

Vocaloid:

for part I it is only asking for x = 0 and x = 12

zarkam21:

just the lines

zarkam21:

ugh im confused

Vocaloid:

yes, it's just asking you to graph x = 0 and x = 12 as if they were normal lines

zarkam21:

zarkam21:

okay so this is part I

Vocaloid:

right that's it

zarkam21:

okay now for part II

zarkam21:

would it be y1/2 dashed line and the rest solid

Vocaloid:

you have only graphed x = 0 and x = 12 up to this point so you would only answer the question for those two lines

zarkam21:

solid?

Vocaloid:

good, so you would answer: the two lines in part I are solid

zarkam21:

now for part III

zarkam21:

i would graph what is given and just see where the colors overlap right?

Vocaloid:

yes. keep in mind you are only graphing x >= 0 and x <= 12 as stated in the directions.

zarkam21:

Vocaloid:

good (make sure you only shade the part where it overlaps)

zarkam21:

Vocaloid:

good

Vocaloid:

parts IV and V are pretty self explanatory just follow the directions

zarkam21:

V the line should be dashed

zarkam21:

and the shading is below

Vocaloid:

good

zarkam21:

now for part VI

Vocaloid:

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

zarkam21:

y=4 x=12

Vocaloid:

good now connect (0,4) and (12,0) in a line

zarkam21:

okay

zarkam21:

part VII

Vocaloid:

so to determine the direction of shading I would suggest re-writing the equation in terms of y

Vocaloid:

so put in in y __ mx + b form

zarkam21:

y=3x+12

Vocaloid:

try one more time

zarkam21:

y=12x+3

Vocaloid:

let's start with x + 3y = 12 solve for y

zarkam21:

y=x/3-4

Vocaloid:

good, so adding back the inequality sign we have y >= (x/3) - 4 which direction do we shade? above or below?

zarkam21:

above

Vocaloid:

good, so shade above and that's part VII solved

zarkam21:

okay part VIII

Vocaloid:

now you just put together all of the graphs you drew

Vocaloid:

|dw:1510110398441:dw| the final result should be like this, with that middle triangle-y section shaded in

zarkam21:

okay thank you, i am in the middle of something i will need to come back to this something popped up

zarkam21:

I am back

zarkam21:

@Vocaloid

zarkam21:

Okay so I just draw the lines of the equations given for VIII and shade in the region you showed

Vocaloid:

May I see what you've drawn?

zarkam21:

nothing yet.. I am going to draw it now, I had to leave urgently

zarkam21:

so didn't get to draw anything for VIII

Vocaloid:

oh, ok

zarkam21:

zarkam21:

this is my drawing

Vocaloid:

check the slope on that dotted line (the slope should be 1/2)

Vocaloid:

also the y-intercept on the solid line is incorrect (should be 0,4)

zarkam21:

the line that goes across the dotted line

zarkam21:

okay fixed that

Vocaloid:

sorry I was afk can I see what you have now?

zarkam21:

it is alright

zarkam21:

Vocaloid:

awesome, now just shade in the big triangle (don't include the left tip part since that's to the left of x = 0

zarkam21:

just that triangle in the smack down middle right

Vocaloid:

yes
