HELP PLEASE THIS IS DUE TONIGHT!! I don't understand how you're supposed to place the slope (20x) on the y-axis because it only has numbers like 100,200,300, there isn't exactly 20 ?????? if it makes sense

Answer:

Explanation:

y > 20x - 200

The y-intercept is -200, so start your line there.

The slope (m) is 20. This means Δy/Δx, so the slope is 20/1, but you can scale it up so it fits on the graph.


(20)/(1) =
(100)/(5)

Using the slope 100/5, from the y=intercept of -200, go up 100 (in the positive y direction) and over 5 (in the positive x direction) for your next point. Now you have a line that fits on the graph. Shade the area to the right of the line.
