Question Solve xy<2x-y<2 for yy, find slope and yy-intercept, determine if line is dashed or solid, and identify shading.

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. The inequality is xy<x-y< . We are solving for yy
3. We need to find the slope and y-intercept4. We need to determine if the line is dashed or solid5. We need to identify whether the shading is above or below the line

STEP 2

First, we need to isolate yy on one side of the inequality. To do this, we will subtract xx from both sides.
xy<2x - y <2y<2x-y <2 - x

STEP 3

To get yy by itself, we will multiply both sides by 1-1. Remember that when you multiply or divide an inequality by a negative number, you must flip the inequality sign.
y>x2y > x -2

STEP 4

Now we have the inequality in slope-intercept form, y=mx+by = mx + b, where mm is the slope and bb is the y-intercept. In this case, m=1m =1 and b=2b = -2.

STEP 5

The inequality sign is "greater than", so the line will be dashed. If the inequality sign was "greater than or equal to", the line would be solid.

STEP 6

Because the inequality is y>x2y > x -2, the shading will be above the line. If the inequality was y<x2y < x -2, the shading would be below the line.
So, the solution to the inequality is y>x2y > x -2, the slope is1, the y-intercept is -2, the line is dashed, and the shading is above the line.
