Write an inequality for the shaded region shown in the figure.​

Answer:

y ≥  x^2 - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we can see that the shaded region is above what seems to be a parabola, and we also can see that the lines of the parabola are solid lines (which means that the points on the curve itself are solutions, so the symbol ≥ is used)

Then:

y ≥ a*x^2 + b*x + c

where a*x^2 + b*x + c is the general quadratic equation.

Now let's find the equation for the parabola:

f(x) = a*x^2 + b*x + c

We also can see that the vertex of the parabola is at the point (0, -1)

This means that:

f(0) = -1 = a*0^2 + b*0 + c

     = -1 = c

then we have that c = -1

Then:

f(x) = a*x^2 + b*x - 1

Now we can look at the graph again, to see that the zeros of the parabola are at +1 and -1

Which means that:

f(1) = 0 = a*1^2 + b*1 - 1 = a + b - 1

f(-1) = 0 = a*(-1)^2 + b*(-1) - 1 = a - b - 1

Then we got two equations:

a + b - 1 = 0

a - b - 1 = 0

from this we can conclude that b must be zero.

Then:

b = 0

and these equations become:

a - 1 = 0

a - 1 = 0

solving for a, we get:

a = 1

Then the quadratic equation is:

f(x) = 1*x^2 + 0*x - 1

f(x) = x^2 - 1

And the inequality is:

y ≥  x^2 - 1

Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

equation of the line is y=x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line has the form y = mx + b

while m is for the slope and b is for the y-intercept.

you can see from the graph that the line intercepts the y-axis at y=1 this is the b.

you can get the slope of the graph by taking two points from the graph lets say (1, 2) and (3, 4) then using this formula:

<h2>m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }</h2>

in our case it will be:

m=\frac{4-2}{3-1} = \frac{2}{2}=1

then just substitute the values for m and b.

Laura has $30 to spend on food for the week. Which inequality represents this? x &lt; 30 x &lt; 30 x &gt; 30 x &gt; 30
Llana [10]
X is less than or equal to $30, she can spend $30, she cant spend more, she can spend less.

The answer should look like X<30 with a line under the less than sign, i hope this helps.
