The solutions that involve whole numbers of cameras are (7, 13), (8, 12), (9, 11), (10, 10), (11, 9), (12, 8) and (13, 7)

<h3>Write and solve a compound inequality for this solution. </h3>

The given parameters are:

  • Daytime cameras = $2.75
  • Flash camera = $4.25
  • Number of cameras = 20 cameras
  • Amount spent = Between $65 and $75

Represent the daytime camera with x and the flash camera with y.

So, we have:

x + y = 20

65 <=2.75x + 4.25y <= 75

Make y the subject in x + y = 20

y = 20 - x

Substitute y = 20 - x in 65 <=2.75x + 4.25y <= 75

65 <=2.75x + 4.25(20 - x) <= 75

Expand

65 <=2.75x + 85 - 4.25x <= 75

This gives

65 <=-1.5x+ 85  <= 75

Subtract 85 from the inequality

-20 <=-1.5x <= -10

Split the inequality

-1.5x >= -20 and -1.5x <= -10

Divide by -1.5

x <= 13.33 and x >= 6.67

Combine the inequality

6.67 <= x <= 13.33

<h3>List all of the solutions that involve whole numbers of cameras.</h3>

In (a), we have:

6.67 <= x <= 13.33

This means that:

x = 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13

Recall that:

y = 20 - x

So, we have:

y = 13, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7

So, the solutions that involve whole numbers of cameras are (7, 13), (8, 12), (9, 11), (10, 10), (11, 9), (12, 8) and (13, 7)

Solve for x: |4x + 12| = 16
pentagon [3]
To solve
if you have |a|=b, solve a=b and a=-b

|4x+12|=16
solve
4x+12=16 and 4x+12=-16
minus 12 both sides
4x=4 and 4x=-28
divide both sides by 4
x=1 and x=-7

Hi there! An average person ate 200.8 pounds of meat, so we would multiply that number by 3 to see how much meat the family ate altogether. 200.8 * 3 is 602.4. There. A family of 3 would eat 602.4 pounds of meat in a year.

volume cylinder

=3.14×2^2×5

=62.8 cubic inches

volume sphere

=4/3×3.14×2^3

=33.49

difference between cylinder and sphere

=62.8-33.49

=29.31 cubic sphere
