Check the picture below.
btw, when Pythagoras said the square of this equals that and so on, he really meant the square or square area.
If a and b are positive integers the system consists of which inequalities?
1 answer:
Answer:
D) y > -ax + b
E) y < ax - b
Step-by-step explanation:
The line with the negative slope (blue on attached diagram):
- negative slope → -ax
- shading above y → y >
- positive y-intercept → +b
Therefore: y > -ax + b
The line with the positive slope (red on attached diagram):
- positive slope → ax
- shading under y → y <
- negative y-intercept → -b
Therefore: y < ax - b
