The statement which correctly describes the shaded region for the inequality is \fbox{\begin\\\ Above the dashed line\\\end{minispace}}

Further explanation:

In the question it is given that the inequality is 6y-3x>9.  

The equation corresponding to the inequality 6y-3x>9 is 6y-3x=9.

The equation 6y-3x=9 represents a line and the inequality 6y-3x>9 represents the region which lies either above or below the line 6y-3x=9.

Transform the equation 6y-3x=9 in its slope intercept form as y=mx+c, where m represents the slope of the line and c represents the y-intercept.  

y-intercept is the point at which the line intersects the y-axis.  

In order to convert the equation 6y-3x=9 in its slope intercept form add 3x to equation 6y-3x=9.  

6y-3x+3x=9+3x

6y=9+3x

Now, divide the above equation by 6.  

\fbox{\begin\\\math{y=\dfrac{x}{2}+\dfrac{1}{2}}\\\end{minispace}}

Compare the above final equation with the general form of the slope intercept form \fbox{\begin\\\math{y=mx+c}\\\end{minispace}}.  

It is observed that the value of m is \dfrac{1}{2} and the value of c is \dfrac{3}{2}.

This implies that the y-intercept of the line is \dfrac{3}{2} so, it can be said that the line passes through the point \fbox{\begin\\\ \left(0,\dfrac{3}{2}\right)\\\end{minispace}}.

To draw a line we require at least two points through which the line passes so, in order to obtain the other point substitute 0 for y in 6y=9+3x.  

0=9+3x

3x=-9

\fbox{\begin\\\math{x=-3}\\\end{minispace}}  

This implies that the line passes through the point \fbox{\begin\\\ (-3,0)\\\end{minispace}}.  

Now plot the points (-3,0) and \left(0,\dfrac{3}{2}\right) in the Cartesian plane and join the points to obtain the graph of the line 6y-3x=9.  

Figure 1 shows the graph of the equation 6y-3x=9.

Now to obtain the region of the inequality 6y-3x>9 consider any point which lies below the line 6y-3x=9.  

Consider (0,0) to check if it satisfies the inequality 6y-3x>9.  

Substitute x=0 and y=0 in 6y-3x>9.  

(6\times0)-(3\times0)>9  

0>9

The above result obtain is not true as 0 is not greater than 9 so, the point (0,0) does not satisfies the inequality 6y-3x>9.  

Now consider (-2,2) to check if it satisfies the inequality 6y-3x>9.  

Substitute x=-2 and y=2 in the inequality 6y-3x>9.  

(6\times2)-(3\times(-2))>9  

12+6>9  

18>9  

The result obtain is true as 18 is greater than 9 so, the point (-2,2) satisfies the inequality 6y-3x>9.  

The point (-2,2) lies above the line so, the region for the inequality 6y-3x>9 is the region above the line 6y-3x=9.  

The region the for the inequality 6y-3x>9 does not include the points on the line 6y-3x=9 because in the given inequality the inequality sign used is >.

Figure 2 shows the region for the inequality \fbox{\begin\\\math{6y-3x>9}\\\end{minispace}}.

Therefore, the statement which correctly describes the shaded region for the inequality is \fbox{\begin\\\ Above the dashed line\\\end{minispace}}

Answer:

Above the dashed line

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that an inequality equation

6y-3x > 9

We have to find the statement which correctly describes the graph of inequality .

First we change inequality equation into equality

6y-3x=9

2y-x=3

Substitute x=0 then we get

y=\frac{3}{2}

Substitute y=0 then we get

x=-3

Therefore, the line passing through the point (-3,0) and (0,3/2).

Substitute x=0 and y=0 in inequality equation then we get

0-0=0\ngtr 9

Therefore, the given equation is false.

When equation is false then the shaded region above the dashed line.

Answer:Above the dashed line

To the nearest tenth, which is the BEST estimate for the volume of the given pyramid?
mixer [17]

Answer:

4.2 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the diagram attached

Volume of the rectangular pyramid = BH/3

B is the base area

H is the height of the pyramid

Given

Base area = 3.2in * 1.4in

Base area = 4.48sq. in

Height = 2.8in

Volume of the rectangular pyramid = 4.48*2.8/3

Volume of the rectangular pyramid = 12.544/3

Volume of the rectangular pyramid = 4.2 cubic inches

Write the equation of the line parallel to 2x - 6y = 12 that passes through the point ( -1, 4).​
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

y = 1/3x + 4 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - 6y = 12

First find the slope

Solve for y

Subtract 2x

2x - 6y -2x= 12-2x

-6y = -2x+12

Divide by -6

-6y/-6 =-2x/-6 +12/-6

y = 1/3 x -2

The slope is 1/3

Parallel lines have the same slope

Using the slope intercept form y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = 1/3x +b

And substituting in the point

4 = 1/3 (-1) +b

4 = -1/3 +b

Add 1/3 to each side

4 + 1/3 = b

y = 1/3x + 4 1/3

If DE = 8, PS = 4, and PQ = 3, then what is the scale factor of DEFG to PQRS?
posledela

The scale factor of DEFG to PQRS is: 3/8.

<h3>What is a Scale Factor?</h3>
  • A scale factor of a dilation is the number by which the size of an original figure is changed to a new figure.
  • Scale factor is ratio of corresponding side of new figure to original figure.

Thus:

DE corresponds to PQ.

PQRS is the new figure.

DE = 8; PQ = 3

  • Therefore:

Scale factor of DEFG to PQRS = PQ/DE

Scale factor = 3/8.

Thus, the scale factor of DEFG to PQRS is: 3/8.
