Math Problem Statement

Solve and check inequalities, and graph the given inequalities on a coordinate plane. The problems include x + y < 7, 3x - 4y > 6, -x - 2y ≥ 5, and graphing y > -1, x ≤ -1, among others.

Solution

It looks like you've uploaded a page from an Algebra 1 workbook containing inequality problems. Here's how we can analyze and solve them:


Analysis of the Questions

4. Solve and check inequality x+y<7x + y < 7

The test point provided is (2,2)(2, -2).

  1. Substitute x=2x = 2 and y=2y = -2 into the inequality: 2+(2)<7    0<72 + (-2) < 7 \implies 0 < 7 This is true, so (2,2)(2, -2) satisfies the inequality.

5. Solve and check inequality 3x4y>63x - 4y > 6

The test point provided is (1,1)(-1, -1).

  1. Substitute x=1x = -1 and y=1y = -1 into the inequality: 3(1)4(1)>6    3+4>6    1>63(-1) - 4(-1) > 6 \implies -3 + 4 > 6 \implies 1 > 6 This is false, so (1,1)(-1, -1) does not satisfy the inequality.

6. Solve and check inequality x2y5-x - 2y \geq 5

The test point provided is (2,3)(-2, -3).

  1. Substitute x=2x = -2 and y=3y = -3 into the inequality: (2)2(3)5    2+65    85-(-2) - 2(-3) \geq 5 \implies 2 + 6 \geq 5 \implies 8 \geq 5 This is true, so (2,3)(-2, -3) satisfies the inequality.

Graphing Inequalities (7–12)

8. y>1y > -1

  1. The boundary line is y=1y = -1, a horizontal line at y=1y = -1.
  2. The inequality y>1y > -1 means the solution is the region above the line. The line itself is dashed because the inequality does not include equality.

10. x1x \leq -1

  1. The boundary line is x=1x = -1, a vertical line at x=1x = -1.
  2. The inequality x1x \leq -1 means the solution is the region to the left of the line. The line is solid because the inequality includes equality.

Follow-up Questions:

  1. Would you like a detailed explanation for graphing inequalities on a coordinate plane?
  2. Do you need additional help with any specific inequality?
  3. Should I explain why we shade specific regions for inequalities?
  4. Do you need more examples of substituting test points into inequalities?
  5. Would you like assistance with solving compound inequalities?

Tip: When graphing inequalities, always start by drawing the boundary line (solid or dashed), then test a point to determine which region to shade!
