Question

What type of line would you graph give the inequality? (1 Point) 5x – 3y < -15 O a solid line, shaded above O a solid line, shaded below O a dashed line, shaded above O a dashed line, shaded below

Answer 1

The function is lower or equal, since the function is part of the solution (equal part) the line is a solid line.

5x-3y ≤ -15

Solve for y:

-3y ≤ -15-5x

y ≥ (-15-5x) /3

SO, the function is a solid line, shaded above (greater or equal)
