Answer:
Positive direction (Up)
Step-by-step explanation:
The given function is
The degree of this polynomial is even.
The leading coefficient is positive 3.
The polynomial will <em>rise </em> on the left and <em>rise </em>on the right.
Therefore the right side of the graph of points in the positive direction of the y-axis.
Up
Apex
5 - x
Given:
5x + 2(x + 1) ≤ 23
Distribute the 2.
5x + 2x + 2 ≤ 23
Combine like terms.
7x + 2 ≤ 23
Subtract 2 from both sides.
7x ≤ 21
Divide both sides by 7
x ≤ 3
Oh shucks, that's crazy man
