To solve the problem you have to isolate or separate x from everything else. That means adding 3 to both sides to start.

Answer: move the -3 to the other side of the inequality, changing its sign.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the inequality you have to isolate the x, so the first step you have to take is to move any number that is adding or subtracting to the x to the other side of the inequality, if the number is positive then when you move it it'll be negative and if it is negative it'll be positive.

5x-3\geq 2\\5x\geq 2+3

Write the slope-intercept form (y=mx + b) of the blue line. Explain or show your work. Write a one sentence summary comparing th
viktelen [127]

Answer:

Therefore, the slope-intercept form of the blue line is

y = \frac{1 }{2}x + 2

Comparison:

The blue and black lines both have equal y-intercept but different slopes.

The black line is steeper than blue line which means the black line has a greater slope than the blue line.

Step-by-step explanation:

Please refer to the attached graph of this question where we have two straight lines.

The slope-intercept form is given by

y = mx + b

Where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept.

Let us find the slope of the blue line from the points given in the graph.

(x_1, y_1) = (0,2) \\\\(x_2, y_2) = (4,4) \\\\

The slope is given by

m = \frac{y_2 -y_1 }{x_2 -x_1}  \\\\m = \frac{4 -2 }{4 -0}  \\\\m = \frac{2 }{4}  \\\\m = \frac{1 }{2}  \\\\

The y-intercept is given by

y = \frac{1 }{2}x + b  \\\\2 = \frac{1 }{2}(0) + b  \\\\b = 2

Therefore, the slope-intercept form of the blue line is

y = \frac{1 }{2}x + 2

Comparison:

The blue and black lines both have equal y-intercept but different slopes.

The black line is steeper than blue line which means the black line has a greater slope than the blue line.
