D. REARRANGE THE GIVEN EQUATION INTO THE FORM■ X< 5 + 9 OR X&LT...

14. d. Rearrange the given equation into the form

x< 5 + 9 or x< 14y= mx+ b, and use the value ofbto find the

5 < x+ 9yvalue of the (x,y) coordinates of the inter-

9 < x+ 5 or 4 < xcept; 3x– y= 8 becomes 3x– 8 = y, which isSince x< 14 and 4 < x, 4 < x< 14.equivalent to y= 3x– 8. Thus,b= –8. The
