Yeah, mostly is has to be negative, but in some cases a is greater than 1 than we do some other operations.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
well you start at origin 0 because there is no y-intercept so you would do rise over run up 1 over 4, 1/4 is your slope
Answer:
In mathematics, equality is a relationship between two quantities or, more generally two mathematical expressions, asserting that the quantities have the same value, or that the expressions represent the same mathematical object. The equality between A and B is written A = B, and pronounced A equals B.[1][2] The symbol "=" is called an "equals sign". Two objects that are not equal are said to be distinct.
Step-by-step explanation:
For example:
{\displaystyle x=y}x=y means that x and y denote the same object.[3]
The identity {\displaystyle (x+1)^{2}=x^{2}+2x+1}{\displaystyle (x+1)^{2}=x^{2}+2x+1} means that if x is any number, then the two expressions have the same value. This may also be interpreted as saying that the two sides of the equals sign represent the same function.
{\displaystyle \{x\mid P(x)\}=\{x\mid Q(x)\}}{\displaystyle \{x\mid P(x)\}=\{x\mid Q(x)\}} if and only if {\displaystyle P(x)\Leftrightarrow Q(x).}{\displaystyle P(x)\Leftrightarrow Q(x).} This assertion, which uses set-builder notation, means that if the elements satisfying the property {\displaystyle P(x)}P(x) are the same as the elements satisfying {\displaystyle Q(x),}{\displaystyle Q(x),} then the two uses of the set-builder notation define the same set. This property is often expressed as "two sets that have the same elements are equal." It is one of the usual axioms of set theory, called axiom of extensionality.[4]
The first step in graphing a linear inequality is to graph the linear equality. The equation -x + 4y = -8 is equivalent to 4y = x - 8, which is equivalent to 
. This is the equation for the line in slope-intercept form, so the line will have a slope of 1/4 and a y-intercept of -2 (see the first image). Notice that the line is solid, rather than dotted. This represents that points on the line are included in the solution, because the inequality sign is ≥, which is not a strict equality (< or >).
Next, we need to figure out which side to shade. To do so, simply pick any point (I like to use the point (0,0) because it makes the calculations easy) and see whether it satisfies the inequality. If it does, shade the side with that point, and if not, shade the opposite side of the graph.
Here we see that the point (0,0) does satisfy the inequality, since -(0) + 4(0) is 0, and 0 ≥ -8, so the top half of the graph should be shaded (see the second image).
