What are the characteristics of the graph of the inequality x ≥ -2? The ray will move to the left. The ray will move to the right. It will use an open circle. It will use a closed circle.(multiple answers) ​

Step-by-step explanation:

The inequality x ≥ -2 is graphed on a number line.  -2 is the smallest possible value.  All subsequent values are larger and therefore lie to the right of -2.

Thus, the following are true:

1.  The ray will move to the right (because x begins at -2 and increases, which means moving to the right on the number line).

2.  It will use a closed circle (because x = -2 is part of the solution set).

5x + 3y = - 4

step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in standard form is

ax + by = c ( a is a positive integer and b, c are integers )

express the line first of all in slope- intercept form

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )

to calculate m use the gradient formula

m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (7, - 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, - 8)

m = = -

y = - x + c ← is the partial equation

to find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation

using (4, - 8 ), then

- 8 = - + c ⇒ c = -

y = - x - ← in slope-intercept form

multiply all terms by 3 to eliminate the fractions

3y = - 5x - 4 ( add 5x to both sides )

5x + 3y = - 4 ← in standard form
