Question

Hi- I need help please to get my HS diploma...did not graduate :(

Answer 1

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

first for the easy one : the curve line is dotted, if the line points are NOT part of the solution. and it is solid, if the points are included.

you know what the curve line indicates ? it indicates the points for which there is equality.

so, if there is a ">=" or "<=" relation, then that includes equality, and the curve is solid.

if there is only a true inequality ("<", ">"), then the curve is dotted, as the equality is not included.

so, I how this is now really clear.

in our case here (I suspect it really looks like this)

y + 4x <= x² + 2

we have a "<=" sign, so, the curve is ..., well ? ... well ? ...

well ? ... well ? ... solid !

and we still treat inequalities as much as possible as regular equalities.

so,

y <= x² - 4x + 2 (after subtracting 4x from both sides).

and now you see it, right ?

all y values that are smaller or equal to the quadratic expression.

SMALLER ! so, BELOW the curve (as the smaller y values are represented by the lower part of the y-axis).
