Let's say her speed was x miles/hour during the first 3 miles runThen, time = distance/speedt1 = 3/x       eq1 In the next 4 miles run, her speed = x-1 miles/hourTime taken:t2 = 4/(x-1)      eq2 Now, total time:t1 + t2 = 1 3/5 hourssubstitute t1 and t2 from eqs. 1 and 2 3/x + 4/(x-1) = 1 3/5=> 3/x + 4/(x-1) = 8/5
=> 3(x-1) + 4x = 8x(x-1)/5=> 35x - 15 = 8x2 - 8x=> 8x2 - 43x + 15 = 0=> (8x-3)*(x-5) = 0=> x = 3/8 or 5 miles/hourx can not be 3/8 miles/hour because in that case, the speed during 4 miles run would be 3/8-1 = negative numberi.e. speed during 3 miles segment = 5 miles/hourand speed during 4 miles segment = 5-1 = 4 miles/hour

Write an inequality using variables x and y whose graph is described by the given information. The points (2,5) and (-3,-5) lie
luda_lava [24]

The inequality using variables x and y which satisfy the points are; y>-3x+3.

<h3>What is inequality?</h3>

Inequality is defined as the relation which makes a non-equal comparison between two given functions.

Given that the points (2,5) and (-3,-5) lie on the boundary line.

The system of inequality is given by:

y>-3x+3-

Now, the point that will lie in the solution set to the following system of inequality are the point that satisfies the inequality.

a)  (6, 5)

when x=6 and y= 5

then we have:

y>-3x+3

6 > -3×5 + 3

6>- 15+3

5 > -12

This means that the point will lie in the solution set.

Also, (-2, -3) when x= -2 and y= -3

then we have:

5 > -3×(-2) + 3

5> 6 + 3

5> 9

Hence, the inequality using variables x and y which satisfy the points are; y>-3x+3.
