Which system of inequalities is represented by the graph? i need help on this for a test

Mathematics

Answer:

Line 1:

We know that the dotted line is the first equation since it is the only one without an 'equal to'

We can see that the y-intercept of the line is '+2'

Now to find its slope

since slope is rise/run and we see that the slope goes down 4 units while travelling only 2 units on the x plane

So, the slope  = -2

Hence, it's formula is y _ -2x  +2

i left a dash in the equation to explain why it will be a '<'

In the graph, we can see that the shaded region is the area where values of all the graphs overlap

Hence, for the area of overlap to be below our line 1, the symbol is <

Therefore, the equation for line 1:

y < -2x + 2

This eliminated option 1 and 4 since their equation is different

Line 2:

Again in this one, the symbol will be a less than since the area of overlap is below the line but since the line is not dotted,

the symbol will be ≤ (less than or equal to)

One of the 2 remaining lines is linear and since the line in question is not linear, we know which line we are talking about

Now to find its equation

y-intercept = -1

Slope = Rise / Run

Since its y increases by 1 whenever the x increases by 2

Rise = 1      Run = 2

Slope = 1/2

Equation:

y ≤ x/2 -1

Now that we have 2 of the 3 equations, we are basically done

We can see that the only system of inequalities that satisfies our equations is 2

Hence, option 'b' is correct

Which quadrant is (8, -1) in?
lisabon 2012 [21]
It’s in the 4th quadrant because the x value is 8 (positive ) so its on the right but the y value is -1 (negative) so it’s below the x-axis

The ratio of the width to the the length of a painting is 3 to 7. If the painting is 42in long how wide is it
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

18 inches wide

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the ratio of width to length is 3:7 we can assume that the length will be substancially longer than the width. The length is given as 42 inches long. To find how big the scale factor is, we divide 42 by 7 to get 6. 6 is our scale factor. take 3 x 6 =18 inches wide.

Hope this helps! :)

How do I solve this question I don’t know how to do it at all
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

x = 5.2

Step-by-step explanation:

See the diagram first.

We know that in a triangle if we draw a line parallel to the baseline then it will divide the other two lines of the triangle in the same ratio.

Therefore, from the given figure it is clear that \frac{x}{13-x} = \frac{2}{3}

⇒ 3x = 26 - 2x

⇒ 5x = 26

⇒ x = 5.2 (Answer)
