hey you need some help?

7. Liv1234

alright so what do you know about graphing an absolute equation?

9. Liv1234

Not a lot.

10. Liv1234

But, I feel like the answer is C.

http://www.purplemath.com/modules/graphabs.htm take a look at this it'll give you an idea.

12. Liv1234

Ohh @Michele_Laino can you help please?

we can write this: $\begin{gathered} y = x - 9,\quad x \geqslant 5 \hfill \\ y = - x + 1,\quad x < 5 \hfill \\ \end{gathered}$

15. Liv1234

So, how is that going to help solve?

16. Liv1234

I need help D:

17. Michele_Laino

we can note that if x<5 then the function is expressed by this formula: y=-x+1 now, that formula tells us that at x=0, y=1

18. Liv1234

Would it be C?

19. Michele_Laino

yes! since we have to serach for a line with negative slope and whose y-intercept is +1

20. Michele_Laino

21. Liv1234

So, it is C?

22. Michele_Laino

correct!

23. Liv1234
