Which is the graph of the linear inequality 2x – 3y < 12?
B

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

2x - 3y < 12

Required

Find the graph it represents

we start by solving for the x and y intercepts;

Let x = 0

2x - 3y < 12 becomes

2(0) - 3y < 12

0 - 3y < 12

-3y < 12

Divide both sides by -3

-3y/3 < 12/-3

y > -4

Let y = 0

2x - 3y < 12 becomes

2x - 3(0) < 12

2x - 0 < 12

2x < 12

Divide both sides by 2

2x/2 < 12/2

x < 6

So, we have

x < 6 and y > -4

This implies that the graph is bound by the region where the values of x is less than 6 and the values of y is greater than -4

From the list of given options,only option C answers this question. The dotted lines actually represent inequalities

answer: c, the green line

step-by-step explanation:

there is no black line, eliminate b.

simple interest implies periodic payments, but the red line shows no payments, eliminate d.

simple interest has equal payments. if paid say every day, the graph is about a straight line (actually a stairstep).

the yellow line is not straight, eliminate a.

check: the green line is straight, answer is c.

simple interest with positive interest rate gives a straight line sloping up to the right. green line:

g(t) = $100 + ($200-$100) ÷ (20 years) × (t years)

= $100 + (4%/year) × ($100)(t years)

incidentally, the yellow line curving upward represents continuously compounded interest

y = $100 × 2^(t years / (14 assuming the yellow line hits $200 at 14 years. 2^0 is 1, so y(0) = $100; 2^(14/14) is 2, so y(14) = $200.
