Question

Bess is trying to solve a puzzle where she has to figure out two numbers, x and y. The sum of twice x and 3 times y is less than 6. Also, y must be greater than 1 less than twice the x. Which graph represents the possible solutions? (5 points)

Answer 1

The correct option is the first graph

Explanation:

I am also doing this exam right at this moment, and that is how I even found your question.

Answer 2

The line
The sum of twice x and 3 times y is less than 6
is the same as
2x + 3y < 6
which can be transformed into
y < -2x/3 + 2

and
y must be greater than 1 less than twice the x
is
y > 2x - 1

The solution is represented by the first figure.
