Answer:

The third choice, x\leq -8

Step-by-step explanation:

One way to do it is to substitute in the potential answers. I'll show you here.

<u>Choice 1</u>

2(-2)+3\leq (-2)-5

-4+3\leq -2-5

-1\leq -7

We can see that this is false, so the answer cannot be choice 1.

<u>Choice 2</u>

<u />2(2)+3\leq (2)-5<u />

<u />4+3\leq 2- 5<u />

<u />7\leq -3<u />

This is also false, so the answer cannot be choice 2.

<u>Choice 3</u>

<u />2(- 8)+ 3\leq (-8)-5<u />

<u />-16+3\leq -8-5<u />

<u />-13\leq -13<u />

This is true. Let's see if choice 4 works.

<u>Choice 4</u>

<u />2(8)+3\leq (8)-5<u />

<u />16+3\leq 8-5<u />

<u />19\leq 3<u />

This is not true. Therefore, 3 is correct.

Answer:

<em>(a). - 1 ; (b). y = - x + 11</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

(1, 10)

<em>(a).</em> <em>m</em> = \frac{y_{2} -y_{1} }{x_{2} -x_{1} } = \frac{5-10}{6-1} = <em>- 1</em>

<em>(b).</em> y - 5 = - 1(x - 6)

<em>y = - x + 11</em>
