IMO E
for a,b and cwe are getting infinite line segment
D again a infinite line segment
E only finite line hence is correct
a) x can take any value > or < 1 so infinite
b) x can take any value <=3 so infinite
c)x can take any value >2 or <-2 again infinite
d) line can be in ist and 2nd qurd

How D is infinite and E is finite? I am not able to visualize the situation here Plz Helpthephoenix wrote:IMO E

By saying 2 line segment do you mean x is between -2 and -5 in II quad and between 2 and 5 in I quad?thephoenix wrote:sorry typo D is two line segshovan85 wrote:How D is infinite and E is finite? I am not able to visualize the situation here Plz Helpthephoenix wrote:IMO E

D is finite, but has two line segment.
x > 0: 2<= x< =5
x < 0: -2>= x >= -5
Since, above two intervals do not have any common point, they will be represent different segments.
I don't think we can say anything about quadrants, because value of Y is unknown.
