The 1st one
y <x-1 and y>=-2x +4
Answer:
an infinite number of solutions
Step-by-step explanation:
−3x −17 = −17 −3x
left side = right side TRUE because -3x-17 is the same as -17-3x
we can rearrange the the equation
−3x −17 +17 = −17 +17−3x, add 17 on both sides of the equations
-3x = -3x, divide both sides by (-3)
x = x
Since this equation is <u>always true ( for any number ) </u>we have <u>an infinite number of solutions</u> (since there are is an infinity of numbers.)
The third choice is very useful. It's valid because two things that are both equal to 'y' are equal to each other, and it can be easily solved to find 'x'.
