Question

Which is the graph of the solution set of 5x + 8y > 50?

[A] On a coordinate plane, a dashed straight line with a negative slope goes through (0, 6) and (10, 0). Everything below and to the left of the line is shaded.

[B]On a coordinate plane, a solid straight line with a negative slope goes through (0, 6) and (10, 0). Everything above and to the right of the line is shaded.

[C] On a coordinate plane, a dashed straight line with a negative slope goes through (0, 6) and (10, 0). Everything above and to the right of the line is shaded.

Answer 1

Explanation:

On a coordinate plane, a dashed straight line with negative slope goes through (negative -5/3, 0) and (0, negative 5). Everything to the right of the line is shaded

Explanation:

6x + 2y > –10

Solve for y

Subtract 6x from each side

2y > -6x -10

Divide by 2

y > -3x - 5

The y intercept is -5 and the slope is -3

The x intercept is -5/3

The line is dashed and shaded to the right
