the point (-1,5 ) is NOT a solution to the inequality.

There are three steps in graphing an inequality:

Rearrange the equation so "y" is on the left and everything else on the right.

Plot the "y=" line (make it a solid line for y≤ or y≥, and a dashed line for y< or y>)

Shade above the line for a "greater than" (y> or y≥)

or below the line for a "less than" (y< or y≤).

Now to solve this, graph the line y=4x-6

Lets use the point (0,0)

0<-6, is NOT true

So we shade everything to the left of the line y=4x-6

Hope that helped.

A line passes through the point (1,4) and is perpendicular to the line with equations y=-1/5x+2. what's the equation of the line

jekas [21]

To find the slope of the perpendicular line, you can take the negative reciprocal of the slope of the line it is perpendicular to.

Taking the negative reciprocal of -1/5 gives 5.

Now we have y=5x+b, where b is the y-intercept. Since we know that the perpendicular line passes through the point (1,4), we can substitute those values into the equation we have to find b.

y=5x+b

4=5(1)+b

4=5+b

b=-1

Therefore, the equation of the perpendicular line is y=5x-1.

A deposit of $6,500 was invested and has grown to $8,300 in 5 years. The growth in value was via simple interest, calculated on

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer: 5.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the money invested has grown to $8300 and the principal was $600, this means the interest is:

= $8300 - $6500

= $1800

Simple interest = (Principal × Rate × Time)/100

1800 = (6500 × Rate × 5)/100

Cross multiply

1800 × 100 = 32500 × Rate

Rate = 180000/32500

Rate = 5.5%

Expand the polynomial and simplify: (4xy− 1 8 y^2)^2

Vinvika [58]

Answer: $4y^{2}(2x-9y)^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following polynomial:

$(4xy-18y^{2})^{2}$

This is a polynomial of the form $(a-b)^{2}=a^{2}-2ab+b^{2}$ . Following this rule to expand it, we have:

$(4xy)^{2}-2(4xy)(18y^{2})+(18y^{2})^{2}$

$16x^{2}y^{2}-144xy^{3}+324y^{4}$

Applying common factor $4y^{2}$ :

$4y^{2}(4x^{2}-36xy+81y^{2})$

Note the polynomial inside the parenthesis is a perfect square trinomial, which can be factored to $(2x-9y)^{2}$ . Hence, the final simplification is:

$4y^{2}(2x-9y)^{2}$

Please answer correctly !!!!!!! Will mark brainliest !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

y= -x^2+5

Step-by-step explanation:

It normally expontionally goes up, so across the x axis is down so it is negative, and is is all scales up, so the start is 5 up from the origin on the y axis, so it would be y=-x+5

Hope this helped!

Choose the graph that represents the following system of inequalities: y ≤ −3x + 1 y ≤ 1 over 2x + 3 In each graph, the area for

Vanyuwa [196]

The graph that represents the inequality has been shown in the attachment.

<h3>How to solve for the graph</h3>

We have these equations

y ≤ −3x + 1

y ≤ x + 3

We remove the inequality sign from both of these equations

y = −3x + 1

y = x + 3

−3x + 1 = x + 3

such that

x = -0.5

we use this value for x in any of the equations

x + 3 = -0.5 + 3

= 2.5

the point of intersection is at 2.5, -0.5

we test for the origin. 0,0

3x + 1

= 3*0 + 1

= 1

for x + 3

0+3 = 3

This is 0≤1 and 0≤3

Hence the graph should be shaded to the origin.
