Answer:

  • It is the last graph: solid line, shaded area over the line x = 2 - x/2

Explanation:

1) <u>Set the algebraigic expression that represents the combinations of sofa and pillow orders:</u>

  • Number of sofas: x (given)
  • Number of pillows: 2y (given, since they come in pairs)
  • Number of items = number of sofas + number of pillows = x + 2y
  • Minimum of 4 items in each order (given) ⇒ x + 2y ≥ 4

<u>2) Predict the graph of the inequality x + 2y ≥ 4</u>

  • The border line is the equation x + 2y = 4
  • You can choose two points to draw a line
  • Choose the axis-intercepst:

        x = 0 ⇒ 2y = 4 ⇒ y =4/2 ⇒ y = 2 ⇒ point (0,2)

        y = 0 ⇒ x = 4 ⇒ point (4,0)

        Then the lines goes through (0,2) and (4,0) ... [the four graphs meet this]

  • The shading area is above the line because when you solve for y you get y ≥   2 - x/2, and the line is included because the "equal to" part of the symbol (≥ means greater than or equal to).

  •  To state that the line is included the graph uses a continous line instead of a dotted one.

<u>3) Conclusion:</u>

That means that the correct graph is the last one: solid line, shaded area over the line y = 2 - x/2.

Note: a more detailed graph would include the fact that the items cannot be negative, i.e. x ≥ 0 and y ≥ 0, which would result in that the shaded area would be on the first quadrant.

Mumz [18]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(5,4) ;  (-3, -2)

Slope=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}\\\\=\frac{-2-4}{-3-5}\\\\=\frac{-6}{-8}\\\\=\frac{3}{4}

(5,4) & m = (3/4)

y -y1 = m(x-x1)

y - 4 = (3/4)(x - 5)

y-4=\frac{3}{4}x-\frac{3}{4}*5\\\\y-4=\frac{3}{4}x-\frac{15}{4}\\\\y=\frac{3}{4}x-\frac{15}{4}+4\\\\y=\frac{3}{4}x-\frac{15}{4}+\frac{4*4}{1*4}\\\\y=\frac{3}{4}x-\frac{15}{4}+\frac{16}{4}\\\\y=\frac{3}{4}x+\frac{1}{4}

Select all of the following that are quadratic equations.​
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

x^2 -2x = 4x+1

2x^2 +12x = 0

9x^2 +6x -3=0

Step-by-step explanation:

A quadratic equation has the highest power of x being squared

x^2 -2x = 4x+1

2x^2 +12x = 0

9x^2 +6x -3=0

These are all quadratic equations
