Explanation:
When the inequality symbol is replaced by an equal sign, the resulting linear equation is the boundary of the solution space of the inequality. Whether that boundary is included in the solution region or not depends on the inequality symbol.
The boundary line is included if the symbol includes the "or equal to" condition (≤ or ≥). An included boundary line is graphed as a solid line.
When the inequality symbol does not include the "or equal to" condition (< or >), the boundary line is not included in the solution space, and it is graphed as a dashed line.
Once the boundary line is graphed, the half-plane that makes up the solution space is shaded. The shaded half-plane will be to the right or above the boundary line if the inequality can be structured to be of one of these forms:
- x > ... or x ≥ ... ⇒ shading is to the right of the boundary
- y > ... or y ≥ ... ⇒ shading is above the boundary
Otherwise, the shaded solution space will be below or to the left of the boundary line.
_____
Just as a system of linear equations may have no solution, so that may be the case for inequalities. If the boundary lines are parallel and the solution spaces do not overlap, then there is no solution.
_____
The attached graph shows an example of graphed inequalities. The solutions for this system are in the doubly-shaded area to the left of the point where the lines intersect. We have purposely shown both kinds of inequalities (one "or equal to" and one not) with shading both above and below the boundary lines.
Answer:
answer: 740
Step-by-step explanation:
Hope that helps!
answer: right
reason: because you are talking about the x axis so if you go left that would be a negative and you cant go up and down bc that's the y axis so the only way to go is right
hope this helped
Answer:
12√5
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the attached sketch, there are 2 triangles which we need to focus on, triangle A (in yellow) and triangle B (In red).
If you look at triangle A, we notice that X is the hypotenuse of triangle A. This means that X must be the largest length in triangle A, hence we can say that x must be greater than 24 (or 24 < x)
Now look at triangle B, in this case, they hypotenuse is 30 and x is the length of one of the sides. This means that x must be shorter than the hypotenuse (i.e x < 30)
from the 2 paragraphs above, we can see now that we can assemble an inequality in x
24 < x < 30
If we look at the choices, we can immediately ignore 33 because x must be less than 30,
working out the choices, we find that the only choice which falls into the range 24<x<30 is the 2nd choice 12√5 (= 26.83) (which is the answer)
The last 2 choices give values smaller than 24 and are hence cannot be the answer
