Which graph correctly represents (5/2)x - y < 3?

You can rewrite the inequality as

Note that

is the equation of the line drawn in the pictures. This means that, for every point on the line, the y coordinate is exactly image of the x coordinate, i.e.

The inequality is satisfied by all points whose y coordinate exceeds the image of the x coordinate. Since the y axis is positively oriented upwards, a greater value for the y coordinate means that the point has to be higher than the line.

Also, since the equality inlves a and not a sign, the line itself is excluded.

So, the correct graph is the second one.

fist on the left goes with the third on the right. second on the left goes with the fourth on the right. third on the left goes with the second on the right. the fourth on the left goes with first on the right

27 + 13x + 15 = (x + 5)( =

step-by-step explanation:

27 + 13x + 15 = (x + 5)( = 27 + 13x + 15 = (x + 5)( = 27 + 13x + 15 = (x + 5)( =
