Answer:

The equation would be y = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the line x = -7 is a vertical line, we know that any line perpendicular to it would be horizontal. All horizontal lines can be written as y = (a number). Since we have an ordered pair that is on the line, we can find that number as the y value in that pair.

y = 8

Is (3,-1) a solution of the graphed system of inequalities?

xeze [42]

Yes, (3,-1) is a solution to the graphed system of inequalities.

<h3>What are system of inequalities?</h3>

When mathematical expressions are compared, with non-strict equality, then such mathematical statements are called mathematical inequalties.

A collection of inequalities for which we consider a common solution for all inequalities is called a system of inequalities.

As we can see in the graph that the two lines are interest in the second quadrant at point such as(x, -y).

So, the point will be a solution also because it lies in the shaded region.

Therefore, Yes, (3,-1) is a solution to the graphed system of inequalities.

Answer:

$x=7.5$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{4x-1}{2}=x+7\\4x-1=2(x+7)\\4x-1=2x+14\\2x-1=14\\2x=15\\x=\frac{15}{2} =7.5$

Hope this helps!
