Graph y=8.5xy=8.5xy, equals, 8, point, 5, x. Which of the following statements are true?
Choose all answers that apply:
Choose all answers that apply:

(Choice A)
A
The equation represents a proportional relationship.

(Choice B)
B
The unit rate of change of yyy with respect to xxx is 8.58.58, point, 5.

(Choice C)
C
The slope of the line is \dfrac{2}{17}
17
2

start fraction, 2, divided by, 17, end fraction .

(Choice D)
D
A change of 171717 units in xxx results in a change of 222 units in yyy.

(Choice E)
E
A change of 444 units in xxx results in a change of 343434 units in yyy.

so firstly, we need to isolate the y variables to be able to solve these inequalities. firstly, add 0.5x on both sides of the first inequality and subtract 1.5x on both sides of the second inequality:

now since the slope is positive for the first inequality, this means that the line going upwards belongs to the first inequality, and the line going downwards belongs to the second inequality.

next, since y ≥ in the first inequality, this means that the shaded region will be above the first inequality's line, thus shading regions a and b.

next, since y ≤ in the second inequality, this means that the shaded region is going to be below this line, thus shading regions a and c.

since both lines shade region a, this means that region a is the solution.

definitely a. the others have almost all data points on one side of the line.
