Which system of linear inequalities is represented by the graph x+5y>5 y<2x+4
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

The lines represent the inequalities .

Further explanation:

The linear equation with slope m and intercept c is given as follows.

The formula for slope of line with points   and   can be expressed as,

Given:

The inequalities are as follows.

a. x – 5y < –5 and y < –2x – 4

b. x + 5y > 5 and y < 2x + 4

c. x – 5y < –5 and y < –2x + 4

d. x + 5y > 5 and y < 2x – 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The blue line intersects y-axis at , therefore the y-intercept is 4.

The blue line intersect the points that are  and .

The slope of the line can be obtained as follows.

The slope of the line is m = 2.

Now check whether the inequality included origin or not.

Substitute  in equation y=x+1.

0 is not greater than 1 which means that the inequality doesn’t include origin.

Therefore, the blue line is y < 2x + 4.

The orange line intersects y-axis at , therefore the y-intercept is 1.

The orange line intersect the points that are  and  .

The slope of the line can be obtained as follows.

The slope of the line is m =  .

Now check whether the inequality included origin or not.

Substitute  in equation y > .

0 is not greater than 1 which means that the inequality doesn’t include origin.

Therefore, the orange line is y > .

Solve the equation y > .

The equation of orange line is 5y + x > 5.

Option (a) is not correct as it satisfy the inequalities of the graph.

Option (b) is correct as it satisfy the inequalities of the graph.

Option (c) is not correct as it satisfy the inequalities of the graph.

Option (d) is is not correct as it satisfy the inequalities of the graph.

Hence,  is correct.

Write the Prime factors that 24 and 36 have in common By showing them multiplied together
lakkis [162]

The prime factors that the numbers 24 and 36 have in common are found out to be; 2 × 2 × 3

<h3>How to get prime factors? </h3>

A prime factor of a number is simply factor of that number that is a prime number. This means that any of the prime numbers that can be multiplied to give the original number.

Now, we have;

Prime factors of 36; 2 × 2 × 3 × 3

Prime factors of 24; 2 × 2 × 2 × 3

The prime factors that they have in common will be; 2 × 2 × 3
