Socks cost $5 per pair. The expression 5p represents the cost in dollars of p pairs of socks. Why must p be a whole number?

5p where p is the number of pairs of sock, which has to be whole number.

Since 5 is a whole number and p is a whole number, therefore, 5p must be a whole number.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

p must be a whole number because $5 which is the cost of socks per pair is a perfect divisor of the expression 5p.

i.e 5p/5 = p

And in the expression p represent number of pairs

The equation of a line is given below . 6x+2y =-18 find the x intercept and the y intercept

vova2212 [387]

Answer: x intercept is -3

y intercept is -9

Step-by-step explanation: 6(0) = 2y=-18, divide both sides by 2, get -9 as a y intercept

6x+2(0)=-18

divide both sides by 6, and get -3 as an x intercept

Direction: Determine whether the given point is a solution to the given system of linear inequalities.

Ann [662]

Answer:

The given point is a solution to the given system of inequalities.

Step-by-step explanation:

Again, we can substitute the coordinates of the given point into the system of inequalities. We know that the x-coordinate and y-coordinate of $(3,2)$ are $x=3$ and $y=2$ , respectively.

Plugging these values into the first inequality, $y\leq x+3$ , gives us $2\leq 3+3$ , which simplifies to $2\leq 6$ . This is a true statement, so the given point satisfies the first inequality. We still need to check if it satisfies the second inequality though, because if it doesn't, it won't be a solution to the system.

Plugging the coordinates into the second inequality, $y\geq -x+3$ , gives us $2\geq -3+3$ , which simplifies to $2\geq 0$ . This is also a true statement, so the given point satisfies the second inequality as well. Therefore, $\bold(\bold3\bold,\bold2\bold)$ is a solution to the given system of inequalities since it satisfies all of the inequalities in the system. Hope this helps!
