Which ordered pairs are solutions to the inequality 2y−x≤−6 ?

1 answer:

4 0

Given inequality: 2y−x ≤ −6

Option-1 : (-3,0)
2×0 - (-3) = 0 + 3 = 3 > -6
Not satisfied

Option-2 : (6,1)
2×1 - 6 = 2 - 6 = -4 > -6
Not satisfied

Option-3 : (1, -4)
2×(-4) - 1 = -8 - 1 = -9 < -6
Satisfied.
Thus, (1, -4) is a solution.

Option-4 : (0, -3)
2×(-3) - 0 = -6 - 0 = -6 = -6
Satisfied.
Thus, (0, -3) is a solution.

Option-5 : (2, -2)
2×(-2) - 2 = -4 - 2 = -6 = -6
Satisfied.
Thus, (2, -2) is a solution.

Solutions are: (1, -4), (0, -3) , (2, -2)

kykrilka [37]

93 / 12 = 7.75

so Lester earns $7.75 a hour.

if he earns $62 how many hours did he work.

so 62 = 7.75 (h)

62/ 7.75 = 8

so he worked 8 hours.

Two boats leave port at noon. Boat 1 sails due east at 12 knots. Boat 2 sails due south at 8 knots. At 2 pm the wind diminishes

Ivan

Answer:

14.86 knots.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

The boats leave the port at noon.

Speed of boat 1 = 12 knots due east

Speed of boat 2 = 8 knots due south

At 2 pm:

Distance traveled by boat 1 = 24 units due east

Distance traveled by boat 2 = 16 units due south

Now, speed of boat 1 changes to 9 knots:

At 3 pm:

Distance traveled by boat 1 = 24 + 9= 33 units due east

Distance traveled by boat 2 = 16+8 = 24 units due south

Now, speed of boat 1 changes to 8+7 = 15 knots

At 5 pm:

Distance traveled by boat 1 = 33 + 2 $\times$ 9= 51 units due east

Distance traveled by boat 2 = 24 + 2 $\times$ 15 = 54 units due south

Now, the situation of distance traveled can be seen by the attached right angled $\triangle AOB$ .

O is the port and A is the location of boat 1

B is the location of boat 2.

Using pythagorean theorem:

$\text{Hypotenuse}^{2} = \text{Base}^{2} + \text{Perpendicular}^{2}\\\Rightarrow AB^{2} = OA^{2} + OB^{2}\\\Rightarrow AB^{2} = 51^{2} + 54^{2}\\\Rightarrow AB^{2} = 2601+ 2916 = 5517\\\Rightarrow AB = 74.28\ units$

so, the total distance between the two boats is 74.28 units.

Change in distance per hour = $\dfrac{Total\ distance}{Total\ time}$

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{74.28}{5} = 14.86\ knots$

Kona wants to bake at most 30 loaves of banana bread and nut bread for a bake sale. Each loaf of banana bread sells for $2.50,an

Mila [183]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

30 loaves of banana bread and nut bread at most

Banana bread is sold for $2.5

Nut bread is sold for $2.75

Total income she wants to make $44

Given that x represent loaves of bread

And y represent loaves of nut bread

First statement

She wants to make at most 30 of both loaves bread and nut, at most means the maximum she wanted to make is 30, so it is either 30 or less than 30.

Therefore the sum of the loaves bread and the nut bread is less or equal to 30.

Mathematically,

x+y≤30. Equation 1

Second statement

She wants to make at least a gain of $44, that is, the minimum money she wants to make is $44

Banana bread is sold for $2.5

Therefore she will make 2.5x by banking x nut bread

Nut bread is sold for $2.75

She will make 2.75y by baking y nut bread.

Therefore,

Since she wants to make at least $44,

The inequality is,

2.5x+2.75y≥ 44. equation 2

The inequalities model are

1. x+y≤30

2. 2.5x+2.75y≥ 44

Which sequence could be partially defined by the recursive formula f (n + 1) = f(n) + 2.5 for n ≥ 1?

horrorfan [7]

Option C: –10, –7.5, –5, –2.5, … is the sequence that could be partially defined by the recursive formula $f(n+1)=f(n)+2.5$

Explanation:

The given recursive formula is $f(n+1)=f(n)+2.5$ for $n\geq 1$ and $f(1)=-10$

We need to determine the sequence.

The sequence can be determined by substituting n = 1, 2, 3, 4,....

2nd term of the sequence:

Substituting n = 1 in the formula $f(n+1)=f(n)+2.5$ , we get,

$f(1+1)=f(1)+2.5$

Simplifying, we have,

$f(2)=-10+2.5=-7.5$

Thus, the 2nd term of the sequence is -7.5

3rd term of the sequence:

Substituting n = 2 in the formula $f(n+1)=f(n)+2.5$ , we get,

$f(2+1)=f(2)+2.5$

Simplifying, we have,

$f(3)=-7.5+2.5=-5$

Thus, the 3rd term of the sequence is -5

4th term of the sequence:

Substituting n = 3 in the formula $f(n+1)=f(n)+2.5$ , we get,

$f(3+1)=f(3)+2.5$

Simplifying, we have,

$f(4)=-5+2.5=-2.5$

Thus, the 4th term of the sequence is -2.5

Therefore, the sequence is –10, –7.5, –5, –2.5, …

Hence, Option C is the correct answer.
