Enter an inequality that represents the phrase "the sum of 4 and y is less than 6." Draw a graph that represents the inequality.
1 answer:
9514 1404 393
Answer:
4 + y < 6
see attached for a graph
Step-by-step explanation:
The English description "the sum of A and B" is written symbolically as ...
A + B
The symbol for "is less than" is <.
Then "the sum of 4 and y is less than 6" will be written ...
4 + y < 6
__
The solution to this is found by subtracting 4 from both sides of the inequality:
4 +y -4 < 6 -4
y < 2 . . . . . . . . . simplified solution
The graph of this is a number line with an open circle at y=2, and shading to the left of that point, where values on the number line are less than 2.

Answer:
Points -2 and -6 on the number line are the two solutions.
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the definition of absolute value as a starting point
To solve the equation, you need to treat the two cases as above:
The solution x=-2 is consistent with the condition x>=-4, so it is the first and valid solution. Now the second case of the absolute value:
Again, the second solution -6 complies with the requirement that x<-4, so it is valid.
