Question

Choose the correct inequality to match the graph. For EVERY problem, look at the following items to find the correct answer:

a.) What is the y-intercept on the graph? Find the answer

choices with that number in the "b" spot in y = mx + b

b.) Look at what type of boundary line is on the graph

(dashed: < & > AND solid ≤ & ≥)

c.) Look is the shading is above or below the boundary line

(above: > & ≥ AND below: < & ≤)

d.) Look at the slope (rise/run) to choose which inequality

has the correct slope. Remember, positive slopes go

uphill and negative slopes go downhill from left to rightImmersive Reader

Answer 1

a. 2.5

b. solid

c. below boundary line

d. negative slope

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Find the y value when x=0. Referring to the graph, it's 2.5

b. solid, since it has a solid straight line, not dashed

c. below boundary line- see graph

d. negative slope, since it goes top to bottom, not bottom to top
