Answer:
y≤3
Step-by-step explanation:
5y+4≤22−y
<em>Step 1: Simplify both sides of the inequality.</em>
5y+4≤−y+22
<em>Step 2: Add y to both sides.</em>
5y+4+y≤−y+22+y
6y+4≤22
<em>Step 3: Subtract 4 from both sides.</em>
6y+4−4≤22−4
6y≤18
<em>Step 4: Divide both sides by 6.</em>
6y/6≤18/6
y≤3
A parallel line must have the same slope. The only one it can be is A
Based on the characteristics of <em>linear</em> and <em>piecewise</em> functions, the <em>piecewise</em> function
is shown in the graph attached herein. (Correct choice: A)
<h3>How to determine a piecewise function</h3>
In this question we have a graph formed by two different <em>linear</em> functions. <em>Linear</em> functions are polynomials with grade 1 and which are described by the following formula:
y = m · x + b (1)
Where:
- x - Independent variable.
- y - Dependent variable.
- m - Slope
- b - Intercept
By direct observation and by applying (1) we have the following <em>piecewise</em> function:

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
5x + 3 - 2x = 12 + 7x - 2
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Combine like terms: 3x + 3 = 7x + 10
- [SPE] Subtract 3x on both sides: 3 = 4x + 10
- [SPE] Subtract 10 on both sides: -7 = 4x
- [DPE] Divide 4 on both sides: -7/4 = x
- Rewrite: x = -7/4
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>
- Substitute in <em>x</em>: 5(-7/4) + 3 - 2(-7/4) = 12 + 7(-7/4) - 2
- Multiply: -35/4 + 3 + 7/2 = 12 - 49/4 - 2
- Add: -23/4 + 7/2 = 12 - 49/4 - 2
- Add: -9/4 = 12 - 49/4 - 2
- Subtract: -9/4 = -1/4 - 2
- Subtract: -9/4 = -9/4
Here we see that -9/4 does indeed equal -9/4.
∴ x = -7/4 is the solution to the equation.
