On a coordinate plane, a solid straight line has a positive slope and goes through (0, negative 1) and (3, 0). Everything above and to the left of the line is shaded.
Which linear inequality is represented by the graph?

y ≤ One-thirdx − 1
y ≥ One-thirdx − 1
y < 3x − 1
y > 3x − 1

Respuesta :

Answer: C

Step-by-step explanation:

Just took the test and made a 100%

Answer:

Option B.

Step-by-step explanation:

A solid straight line passes through (0, -1) and (3, 0)

Slope of the line = [tex]\frac{y-y'}{x-x'}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{0+1}{3-0}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

Equation of the line passing through (0, -1) will be  

y - y' = m(x - x')

[tex]y+1=\frac{1}{3}(x-0)[/tex]

[tex]y=\frac{1}{3}x-1[/tex]

Since this line is solid then there will the sign of (≥ or ≤)

If everything above and to the left of the line is shaded then the inequality will be

[tex]y\geq \frac{1}{3}x-1[/tex]

Therefore, the answer will be option B. [tex]y\geq \frac{1}{3}x-1[/tex]
