Why will the value of y for the function y equals 5x + 1 always be greater than that of y equals 4x + 1 with X greater than 1?

2 answers:

4 0

You mean
the linear equations, 5x-y+1=0,4x-y+1=0
the slopes are 5 and 4 respectively.
it is clear that slope of first equation is greater that is it has a steeper graph therefore it Will always be greater than the other for x > 1
the same can be done by calculus; differentiation.

note y=5x+1 is always greater than y=4x+1 for all x>1

Because 5 times any number > 1 will always be greater then 4 times any number > 1.

$7x+10=13(12x-3)+14x\qquad\text{use distributive property}\\\\7x+10=(13)(12x)+(13)(-3)+14x\\\\7x+10=156x-39+14x\\\\7x+10=170x-39\qquad\text{subtract 10 from both sides}\\\\7x=170x-49\qquad\text{subtract 170x from both sides}\\\\-163x=-49\qquad\text{divide both sides by (-163)}\\\\\boxed{x=\dfrac{49}{163}}$
