Question

which of the following is the correct solution to the linear inequality shown below y 1/3x-2

Answer 1

we are asked to determine the solution to the linear inequality y <1/3x -2. In this case, we can answer this by equating the equation to zero, transposition and cross multiplication. 

y = 0 = 1/3x-2
2 = 1/3x 
6 = x

If this is the case, x>6
