You can rewrite the inequality as
Note that
is the equation of the line drawn in the pictures. This means that, for every point on the line, the y coordinate is exactly image of the x coordinate, i.e. 
The inequality is satisfied by all points whose y coordinate exceeds the image of the x coordinate. Since the y axis is positively oriented upwards, a greater value for the y coordinate means that the point has to be higher than the line.
Also, since the equality inlves a 
and not a 
sign, the line itself is excluded.
So, the correct graph is the second one.
Answer: yes it is
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
b. not similar
Step-by-step explanation:
The given sides* have the ratio 30:39 = 10:13 in one triangle and the ratio 20:27 = 10:13.5 in the other triangle. Since these ratios are different, the triangles cannot be similar.
____
* These are the sides bracketing the vertical angles at T. If the triangles were similar, the three sides would have to have the ratios 10 : 13 : 13.5.
However, the geometry shown would require that the angle opposite side 13.5 in one triangle have the same measure as the angle opposite side 13 in the other triangle. That is not possible, so it is not possible for these triangles to be similar.
