Personally I'd solve this inequality for y first: y < x-3.
That immediately eliminates (6,2) and (2,6).
Starting from y < x-3 and letting 2 sub for x and -1 sub for y, is the following true or false?
-1 < 2 -3 NO. -1 < -1 is false. Was there a fourth answer choice?
Answer:
lesser x is 1
greater x is 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to solve the equation so as to get the bigger and the lesser x values
We proceed as follows;
x^2 -4x + 3 = 0
x^2 - x-3x + 3 = 0
x(x-1) -3(x-1) = 0
(x-3)(x-1) = 0
x = 3
or x = 1
Greater x is 3
lesser x is 1
The slope of this problem is 3/4 same as the rate of change
