Question

The graph shown is the solution set for which of the following inequalities?

y > x + 1
y > |x| + 1
y > |x - 1|

Answer 1

it should be obvious from the v shape with sharp vertex that this is the graph of some absolute value function. that rules out the 1st one. the second one doesn't work when you plug in x=1, which would give y=2. the third one is correct
