Graph each inequality. y≤(1/3)x

검증된 단계별 안내

Identify the inequality given: \(y \leq \frac{1}{3}x\). This means we are looking for all points \((x, y)\) where the \(y\)-value is less than or equal to one-third of the \(x\)-value.

Start by graphing the boundary line \(y = \frac{1}{3}x\). This is a straight line with slope \(\frac{1}{3}\) passing through the origin \((0,0)\).

Since the inequality is \(\leq\) (less than or equal to), the boundary line should be drawn as a solid line to indicate that points on the line satisfy the inequality.

Next, choose a test point not on the line, commonly \((0,0)\) if it is not on the boundary line, to determine which side of the line to shade. Substitute the test point into the inequality to check if it satisfies \(y \leq \frac{1}{3}x\).

Shade the region of the coordinate plane where the inequality holds true based on the test point result. This shaded area represents all solutions to the inequality.

주요 개념

질문에 올바르게 답하기 위해 반드시 이해해야 하는 핵심 개념들은 다음과 같습니다.

Graphing Linear Inequalities

Graphing linear inequalities involves plotting the boundary line of the related equation and then shading the region that satisfies the inequality. For y ≤ (1/3)x, the boundary line is y = (1/3)x, and the area below or on this line is shaded to represent all solutions.

Slope-Intercept Form

The slope-intercept form of a line is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. In y ≤ (1/3)x, the slope is 1/3 and the y-intercept is 0, which helps in accurately drawing the boundary line on the coordinate plane.

Solid vs. Dashed Boundary Lines

When graphing inequalities, a solid line is used if the inequality includes equality (≤ or ≥), indicating points on the line satisfy the inequality. A dashed line is used for strict inequalities (< or >), meaning points on the line are not included.
