Answer:

2) Add 21 to both sides

Step-by-step explanation:

When solving 16x-21=52 for x, our goal to isolate x such that we have x set equal to something.

Therefore, we want to start by adding 21 to both sides. This leaves us with 16x=73 and we are one step closer to isolating x.

Fittoniya [83]
Inequation 1: 

\frac{2}{3}x-3 \geq y

to plot the pairs (x, y) for which the inequation holds, draw the line y=\frac{2}{3}x-3

then pick a point in either side of the line. If that point is a solution of the inequation, than color that region of the line, if that point is not a solution, then color the other part of the line.

we do the same for the second inequation. Then the solution, is the region of the x-y axes colored in both cases.

inequation 2: 

y+ \frac{2}{3}x\ \textless \ 4

y\ \textless \ - \frac{2}{3} x+ 4&#10;


draw the lines 

i)  y=\frac{2}{3}x-3          use points (0, -3),  (3, -1)

ii)y=- \frac{2}{3} x+ 4       use points ( 0, 4),   (3, 2)


let's use the point P(3, 3) to see what region of the lines need to be coloured:

\frac{2}{3}x-3 \geq y  ; 
\frac{2}{3}(3)-3 \geq 3
2-3 \geq 3, not true so we color the region not containing this point


y+ \frac{2}{3}x\ \textless \ 4
(3)+ \frac{2}{3}(3)\ \textless \ 4
3+ 5\ \textless \ 4 not true, so we color the region not containing the point (3, 3)

The graph representing the system of inequalities is the region colored both red and blue, with the blue line not dashed, and the red line dashed.
