Given that:

- Makayla earns $7 per hour at the bagel shop and $12 per hour mowing lawns.

- She needs to earn at least $120 per week, but must work less than 30 hours per week.

Let be "x" the number of hours Makayla works in the bagel shop, and "y" the number of hours she works in the mowing lawns.

Using the information given, you can set up the following System of Linear Inequalities:

\begin{cases}7x+12y\ge120 \\ x+y

The first inequality means that she needs to earn at least $120 per week, and the second inequality means that she needs to work less than 30 hours per week.

You can rewrite each equation by solving for "y":

- For the first inequality:

\begin{gathered} 12y\ge-7x+120 \\  \\ y\ge-\frac{7}{12}+\frac{120}{12} \\  \\ y\ge-\frac{7}{12}x+10 \end{gathered}

- And for the second inequality:

y

Notice that the boundary line of the first inequality is:

y=-\frac{7}{12}x+10

It is written in Slope-Intercept Form:

y=mx+b

Where "m" is the slope and "b" is the y-intercept.

Notice that, for the first line:

\begin{gathered} m_1=-\frac{7}{12} \\  \\ b_1=10 \end{gathered}

The slope indicates that the lines move 12 units to the right and 7 units down.

Since the symbol of the inequality is:

\ge

The line is solid and the shaded region is above the line.

The boundary line of the second inequality is:

y=-x+30

Notice that:

\begin{gathered} m_2=-1 \\ b_2=30 \end{gathered}

Since the symbol is "Less than", the line is dashed and the shaded region must be below the line.

Now you can graph the System of Linear Inequalities.

Hence, the answer is:

- System of Linear Inequalities:

\begin{cases}7x+12y\ge120 \\ x+y

- Graph:

larisa [96]
In this question, <span>Karen measures the garden width result in 44.25 m while it's actual width is 45.5m. Then the amount of error that the Karen did would be: 45.5m-44.25m= 1.25m
The percent error would be:
</span>percent error = amount of error/ actual measurement
percent error = 1.25m/ 45.5m *100%=2.7%

A cupcake requires 35 grams of sugar and 50 grams of flour, and a muffin requires 30 grams of sugar and 65
TEA [102]

The inequality that represents the condition based on the number of grams of sugar is 35C + 30M ≥ 460

The  inequality that represents the condition based on the number of grams of flour is 50C + 65M ≤ 970

<u>Solution:</u>

Given, a cupcake requires 35 grams of sugar and 50 grams of flour, and a muffin requires 30 grams of sugar and 65 grams of flour.  

Shawna needs to use up at least 460 grams of sugar to make cupcakes and muffins, and she wants to use at most 970 grams of flour.

Let C denote the number of cupcakes she makes and M the number of muffins she makes.  

Now, let us write an inequality that represents the condition based on the number of grams of sugar.  

Total sugar used ≥ 460 grams.

Sugar used for cupcakes + sugar used for muffins ≥ 460 grams

Number of cupcakes x sugar used for 1 cupcake + number of muffins x sugar for 1 muffin ≥ 460

C \times 35 + M \times 30 ≥ 460

35C + 30M ≥ 460

Now let us write an inequality that represents the condition based on the number of grams of flour.

Total flour used ≤ 970 grams.

Flour used for cupcakes + flour used for muffins ≤ 970 grams

Number of cupcakes x flour used for 1 cupcake + number of muffins x flour for 1 muffin ≤ 970

C \times 50 + M \times 65  ≤ 970.

50C + 65M ≤ 970

Hence, the inequalities are 35C + 30M ≥ 460 and 50C + 65M ≤ 970.
