Consider the following graph which represents the solutions to a system of inequalities. Which of the following systems of inequalities does the graph represent?

The system of inequalities is -2x + y > 0    -x + y ≥ 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The form of the equation of a line is y = m x + b, where

The line passes through the origin, then

Let us look at the graph to find the correct answer

∵ One of the lines are solid and the other is dashed

∵ The shaded area is over the two lines

∴ The signs of the two inequalities are ≥ and >

∵ The two lines pass through the origin

→ That means the y-intercepts are 0

∴ The form of the inequalities are y ≥ m x and y > m

There are only two answers that have these forms, so we must find the slope of each line

∵ m = , (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are two points on the line

∵ The solid line passes through points (0, 0) and (2, 2)

∴ m = = = 1

→ Substitute it in the form of the equation

∴ y ≥ 1(x)

∴ y ≥ x

→ Subtract x from both sides

∴ -x + y ≥ 0

∵ The dashed line passes through points (0, 0) and (1, 2)

∴ m = = = 2

→ Substitute it in the form of the equation

∴ y > 2(x)

∴ y > 2x

→ Subtract 2x from both sides

∴ -2x + y > 0

The system of inequalities is -2x + y > 0    -x + y ≥ 0

the direct variation says that:

then the equation is of the form is given by:

            where k is the constant variation.

from the given table:

consider any value of x and m(x)=y

x = 2 and m(x)=y = 3

substitute these value in [1]; we have;

divide both sides by 2 we get;

⇒

check:

put x = -1 and m(x) = -1.5

substitute in the equation:

-1.5 = -1.5                   true

therefore, the function m(x) represents a direct variation
