Hello
Your solution is attached. Thank you for using BrainMass.
Solve the following system by graphing:
14. x - 2y = -6
y = -3x/2 - 1
To solve these problems,
1) convert both equations to lines of the form y = mx + b.
2) find 2 points for each line
3) Graph the lines
4) The intersection point will be the solution.
y = -3x/2 - 1 is ok
x y
0 -1
1 -2.5
x - 2y = -6
2y = x + 6
y = (1/2)x + 3
X y
0 3
1 3.5
The intersect is (-2,2)
Checking...
x - 2y = -6
y = -3x/2 - 1
-2 - (2 x 2) = -6 ...yes
2 = -(3 x -2)/2 - 1...yes
15. y < 5x - 2
y > 3x - 2
Graph each line and figure out the common area.
The "common area" is the intersection between the area below (<=) y = 5x -2 and
above (>=) y = 3x - 2. ...
