Question

5. Below is the graph for the equation 4x + 5y = 20. How could we changethis graph to represent the solution set for the inequality 4x + 5y < 20?Explain in detail what changes you would need to make. *y у54321-6 -5 -4 -3 -20-12345-2-3-4-5-6

Answer 1

Explanations:

Given the equation of the given graph as 4x + 5y = 20, in order to change the graph to give the inequality 4x + 5y < 0, we will need to apply the following;

- Shade the down portion of the graph since the inequality sign is "less than"

- The straight thick line will also change to be a broken line since the expression is no longer equal to 20.

The resulting graph for the inequality expression 4x + 5y < 20 is as shown below:
