Algebra.Com's Answer #515557 by brysca(112)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! When graphed, both linear inequalities should look like this: \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "To graph both inequalities manually, follow the expression y=mx+b where m is the slope (rise/run), and b is the y intercept.\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "To determine the solution set between the two graphs, we must put a test point. \n" ); document.write( "We will use point (0,0) for this example\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Red graph: \n" ); document.write( "y ≥ .5x+.5 \n" ); document.write( "0 ≥ .5(0)+.5 \n" ); document.write( "0 ≥ .5 \n" ); document.write( "Is zero greater than .5? Of course not, so shade the upper side of the red graph\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Green graph: \n" ); document.write( "y ≤4x−.5 \n" ); document.write( "0 ≤ 4(0)-.5 \n" ); document.write( "0 ≤ -.5 \n" ); document.write( "Is zero less than -.5? No. So shade the right side of the green graph. \n" ); document.write( "Now, knowing the solution set for green graph and the red graph, just shade in the sides they have in common. \n" ); document.write( "In this problem, the shaded area should be in the middle of both of the graphs. \n" ); document.write( " |
