Check the picture below.

to graph an inequality, you pretty much first off, need to graph the "equality" or equation, so for y < 3x − 6, first off, graph the line <span>y = 3x − 6.

and then you do a "true" or "false" check.

now, if you look at the line below, it splits the grid in two sections, so, let's check a point in either section, if one is false, the other is true and the other way around.

so, let's check the region on the left-hand-side, hmmmm say point 0,0, the origin.

y < 3x - 6

y = 0,  x = 0  thus

0 < 3(0) - 6

0 < -6   <--- now, is that really true? is 0 lesser than -6? not quite, is false.

recall that on the negative side, the closer to 0, the larger the value, so -1 is much larger than -1,000,000.

because the point 0,0 yielded a false inequality, that region is the "false region" and thus not shaded, therefore, the other side must be the "true region", and thus we shade that then.

we can run a quick check on that btw, say on point 4,4

y =4,   x = 4  thus

4 < 3(4) - 6

4 < 12 - 6

4 < 8    <---- yeap, is true, 4 is lesser/smaller than 8.

hmm ohh yes, the line needs to be dashed for a < or >, because it "has that boundary but it does not include it", unlike </span>⩽ and ⩾, which is a solid line, because it has that boundary and it includes it too.

A drill can dig through rock at a rate of 2 1/2 inches per hour. How many hours will it take for the drill to reach five feet be
Gre4nikov [31]
5 feet is equal to 60 inches. 60 inches divided by 2.5 inches per hour means it would take 24 hours for the drill to reach five feet (assuming it maintains the same rate of digging)

The solution to the system is (3,4):<br> 3x – 2y = 1<br> 4y = 7+3x<br> Pizz help mee
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

(3,4) is the solution of both equations.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equations are :

3x – 2y = 1 ....(1)

4y = 7+3x

4y-3x = 7 .....(2)

Put x = 3 and y = 4 in equation (1).

3(3) – 2(4) = 9-8

= 1

So, (3,4) is the solution of the equation (1).

Again put x = 3 and y = 4 in equation (2).

4(4)-3(3) = 16-9

= 7

Hence, (3,4) is the solution of both equations.
