Which of the following is a solution of y > |x| - 5? a.(4, -1) B.(-1, -4) C.(-4, 1)
1 answer:
Fill your inequality in with the y and x provided and then do the math. (4, -1) would fill in like this (I will use brackets to indicate absolute value symbols, since there are none in the equation editor): ![-1\ \textgreater \ [4]-5](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=-1%5C%20%5Ctextgreater%20%5C%20%5B4%5D-5)
The right side is in fact equal to the left side so that's not the answer. For (-1, -4): ![-4\ \textgreater \ [-1]-5](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=-4%5C%20%5Ctextgreater%20%5C%20%5B-1%5D-5)
and these are also equal. Let's try C now (-4, 1): ![1\ \textgreater \ [-4]-5](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=1%5C%20%5Ctextgreater%20%5C%20%5B-4%5D-5)
. The absolute vale of -4 is 4 so 4 - 5 = -1 which is, in fact, less than 1. So C is our answer.

We have been that frequency (y) varies inversely with wavelength (x).
We know that two inversely proportional quantities are in form , where a is inversely proportional to b and k is constant of variation.
Our required equation would be .
To find frequency of blue light, we will substitute and
in our equation as:
Therefore, the frequency of blue light is 764.
