Answer:

1) equations 1, 2, 3  and 4

2)  see picture attached (the region of the solutions is in yellow)

3) x = 18.75 and y =0

   y = 12.5 and x =0

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call x the number of paperback books bought and y the number of  hardback books bought.

She decided to spend at most $150.00. All paperback books are $8.00 and all hardback books are $12.00. Combining this information we get:

x*8 + y*12 ≤ 150 (eq.  1)

Anna wants to purchase at least 12 books. Mathematically:

x + y ≥ 12 (eq. 2)

On the other hand,  both the number of paperback books bought and the number of  hardback books bought must be positive, that is:

x ≥ 0 (eq. 3)

y ≥ 0 (eq. 4)

3) One possible solution is got if we make y = 0 and to take eq. 1 as an equality, then:

From eq. 1: x*8 = 150

x = 150/8 = 18.75

equations 2 and 3 are also satisfied

Another option is to make x = 0 and to take eq. 1 as an equality, then:

From eq. 1: y*12 = 150

y = 150/12 = 12.5

equations 2 and 4 are also satisfied

Answer:

The solutions for 3 questions are explained one after the other below.

Step-by-step explanation:

1).Let x be the number of paperback books that she buys,  y be the number of hardback books that she buys.

for the first condition, i.e, she has decided to spend at most $150.00 on books,the required inequality will be :

8x+12y\leq 150

for the second condition , i.e, she wants to purchase at least 12 books,

the required inequality will be:

x+y\geq 12

2). the graph is in the attachment..

3). x,y are the two required solutions. where,

x =number of paperback books she buys.

y=number of hardback books she buys.

Convert 12080 gallons per month into liters per hour
Anastaziya [24]

In this question , we have to convert 12080 gallons per month to liters per hour .

There are 3.78541 liters in 1 gallons , and there are 30 days in a month, and 24 hours in a day .

So to convert 12080 gallons per month, we have to multiply 12080 by 3.78541 and divide the result by the product of 30 and 24. THat is

12080 gallons per month = \frac{12080*3.78541}{24*30} liters / hour

= \frac{45727.75280}{720} liters/ hour = 63.51 liters/hour

Westkost [7]

rule is to  shift 8 units left & , shift 2 units down , Correct option C)  T<-8,-2> (Jessica) ,

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Here we have , Jessica was sitting in row 9, seat 3 at a soccer game when she discovered her ticket was for row 1, seat 1. We need to Write a rule to describe the translation needed to put her in the proper seat. Let's do this:

Suppose the above problem in coordinate system where we have a point P(9,3) , And we need to write rule for translation of this point to Q(1,1) .

Let , (x,y)=(9,3) , Now shift 8 units left i.e.

⇒  (x,y)=(9,3)

⇒  (x-8,y)=(9-8,3)

⇒  (x-8,y)=(1,3)

Now , shift 2 units down i.e.

⇒  (x-8,y)=(1,3)

⇒  (x-8,y-2)=(1,3-2)

⇒  (x-8,y-2)=(1,1)

Therefore , rule is to  shift 8 units left & , shift 2 units down , Correct option C)  T<-8,-2> (Jessica) ,
