Math Problem Statement
Solution
Let's solve each question step-by-step.
Problem 11
The graph shows a shaded region in the first quadrant, indicating that the inequalities are bounded by two lines:
- A horizontal line at , where the shading is below it, suggesting .
- A line passing through the origin with a positive slope, suggesting as a boundary. The shading is also below this line, which implies .
Therefore, the system of inequalities that could represent this region is:
Problem 12
The inequalities given are:
The first inequality represents a line with a positive slope, shading above it. The second inequality represents a line with a negative slope, shading below it. The solution region lies where the two shaded areas overlap, which is likely to be in the area bounded between these lines in the negative -direction.
Looking at the answer choices, the graph that correctly represents this system is:
- A) because it shows shading in the region where both inequalities would overlap, which is a triangular region below these lines.

Tip: When graphing inequalities, test a point (like the origin) to quickly verify the correct region for shading.
