Algebra.Com's Answer #40178 by megaroo11891(5)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! a. 3x-y>9 \n" ); document.write( "b. 2x-3y< -6\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "First off, you need to change these problems into slope intercept form (y=mx+b). To do that for the first problem, subtract 3x from both sides to get -y > -3x + 9. Now, since your Y value can't be negative, you must multiply by -1 on both sides to get y < 3x - 9 (remember that whenever you multiply or divide by a negative, you change the signs). For the second problem, you must subtract 2x from both sides to get -3y < -2x - 6. Now you must divide both sides by -3 to get y > 2/3x + 2 (remember that whenever you multiply or divide by a negative, you change the signs). Your graph would look something similar to this, but the lines would be dashed because it is < or >.\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " |
