Question 685906:  I really need help.. Im doing this assighnment and I can't find any resources that have similar problems or how to do them. My teachers examples don't cover any of this. (I will have to learn this since I have a quiz and a final that includes it) But, I was wondering if someone could show me how to do them step by step...
 
Which of the following inequalities satisfies the following description: the region inside an ellipse centered at the origin, with x-intercepts at -2 and 2, and y-intercepts at 4 and -4?
 
 
Graph the solution set of the system of inequalities.
 
3x - 2y ≥ -6 
  x - 1 < 0
 
The graph shows the region of feasible solutions. Find the maximum or minimum value, as specified, of the objective function.
 
objective function = x - 4y; minimum 
(I am pretty sure you have to have the graph for this one, so I will keep trying to learn this myself :S)
 
 
Provide an appropriate response.
 
Which one of the following is a description of the graph of the inequality? 
(x - 7)2 + (y + 8)2 > 36 
Answer 
		a.The region inside the circle with center (-7, 8) and radius 6 
		b.The region outside a circle with center (-7, 8) and radius 6 
		c.The region outside a circle with center (7, -8) and radius 6 
		d.The region inside a circle with center (7, -8) and radius 6
 
 
 
 
Graph the inequality.
 
(x - 4)2 + (y + 3)2 ≤ 4
 
 
 
This is out of 30 questions so I don't feel like I am asking to much, this is definitely not all of my homework so please don't think that. I don't understand how to graph these... etc.. PLEASE HELP.

You can  put this solution on YOUR website! Which of the following inequalities satisfies the following description: the region inside an ellipse centered at the origin, with x-intercepts at -2 and 2, and y-intercepts at 4 and -4? 
---- 
Ans: x^2/4 + y^2/16 < 1 
------------------------------- 
 
Graph the solution set of the system of inequalities.  
3x - 2y ≥ -6 
x - 1 < 0 
----- 
y <= (3/2)x +3 
x < 1 
------- 
  
The graph shows the region of feasible solutions. Find the maximum or minimum value, as specified, of the objective function.  
objective function = x - 4y; minimum 
(I am pretty sure you have to have the graph for this one, so I will keep trying to learn this myself :S)

Comment: Find the coordinates of each corner of the region of feasible 
solution.  Substitute each of the x/y pairs into x - 4y to find the 
minimum.

Answers ??? 
a.The region inside the circle with center (-7, 8) and radius 6 
b.The region outside a circle with center (-7, 8) and radius 6 
c.The region outside a circle with center (7, -8) and radius 6 
d.The region inside a circle with center (7, -8) and radius 6 
--- 
Center at (7,-8); region outside because of ">". 
================
 
Graph the inequality.  
(x - 4)^2 + (y + 3)^2 ≤ 4 
---- 
Circle with center at (4,-3) and radius = sqrt(4) = 2 
------ 
Shade the area inside the circle. 
Graph is every point on the circle and inside the circle.
