a and b i hope this is correct
Answer:
its much closer to 0
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2 is more 5/10 and 0 is 0/10
0 is one away from one and 5 is 4 away
Answer:
"number line with open circles on negative 9 and 5, shading going in the opposite directions."
Step-by-step explanation:
Your inequality doesn't include an equal sign so there will be no closed holes. It will only be open holes.
|u|>14 means that the number u has to be greater than 14 or less than -14. These numbers I describe just now all have a distance greater than 14 from 0.
So |u|>14 implies u>14 or u<-14.
But we are solving |2x+4|>14 so this implies we have 2x+4>14 or 2x+4<-14.
2x+4>14
Subtract 4 on both sides:
2x >10
Divide both sides by 2:
x >5
2x+4<-14
Subtract 4 on both sides:
2x <-18
Divide both sides by 2:
x <-9
So our solution is x>5 or x<-9.
Graphing!
~~~~~~~O O~~~~~~~~
-----------(-9)---------------------------------(5)---------------
So we shaded to the right of 5 because our inequality says x is bigger than 5.
We shaded to the left of -9 because our inequality says x is less than -9.
y-intercept -3
slope 1/2
is sufficient info with which to write an equation for a straight line:
y = mx + b becomes y = (1/2)x - 3.
You should check this by determining whether or not (2,-1) satisfies this equation.
