What is the name of the shape graphed by the function r = 2 - costheta

limaçon (no inner loop)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a limaçon is written generically as ...

r = b + a·cos(θ)

For b=2 and a=1, this would put the flat side on the left. Rotating it 180° can be accomplished by adding or subtracting π from θ. Then the equation can be ...

r = 2 + cos(θ-π) . . . . or ...

r = 2 - cos(θ)

the system of inequalities is

step-by-step explanation:

step 1

find the equation of the dashed line

we have the points

(0,0) and (3,1)

the line passes through the origin, so, is a direct variation

find the slope

the equation of the dashed line is

the solution of the inequality a s the shaded area above the dashed line

therefore

the equation of the inequality a is

step 2

find the equation of the solid line

we have the points

(4,0) and (0,4)

find the slope

the equation of the solid line is

the solution of the inequality b s the shaded area below the solid line

therefore

the equation of the inequality b is

step 3

the system of inequalities is
