a) Rewrite all the inequalities in the normal form (y= m.x+b) to betterv understand the question:
1) 5x + y ≤ 2 →→ y ≤ -5x +2
2) 5x + y ≥ 2→→ y ≥ -5x + 2
3) 5x - y ≤ 2→ - y ≤ - 5x +2 (multiply both sides by "-" )→ y≥ 5x-2
4) 5x - y ≥2→ - y ≥ -5x +2 (multiply both sides by "-" )→ y≤ 5x-2
The graph shows tha it's a linear positive function, then a>0 ( a=5)
Then it's either y≥ 5x-2 or y≤ 5x-2.
If you replace y by 0 and x by 0 you will find
0≥-2 and 0≤ -2 , obviously the 1st one satisfies since 0≥ -2 and the equation is y≥ 5x - 2 or 5x - y ≤ 2 (3rd answer)
b) f(x) = 2(3)ˣ and g(x) = 3ˣ +9
Find the value of x when:
f(x) = g(x) OR
2(3)ˣ = 3ˣ +9;
The only solution is when x = 2:
2(3)² = 3² + 9
2(9) = (9) + 9
