Answer:
This is the same as writing y < (-1/2)x+3
==============================================================
Explanation:
The dashed boundary line goes through (0,3) and (4,1)
Apply the slope formula for those two points
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (1-3)/(4-0)
m = -2/4
m = -1/2
The slope of the dashed line is -1/2. The y intercept is 3. So we go from y = mx+b to y = (-1/2)x+3 to represent the equation of the dashed line. This is the same as writing
We shade below the dashed line to represent the inequality . Points in the shaded region are solutions to the inequality. One example point is (0,0).
Note that we don't have "or equal to" as part of the inequality sign because we are not including points on the boundary. A solid line, rather than a dashed line, would include points on the boundary.
Steps:
6 1/4 - 4 3/15 can also be written as 25/4 - 23/5
The LCD of 4 and 5 is 20.
That gives us 125/20 - 92/20.
Now, just subtract the numerators (leave the denominators the same).
That brings us to 33/20, which can be simplified to 1 13/20
