Suppose you bring 100 pounds of groceries into your home each week. Please estimate how many pounds of each type of waste (plast

ic, paper, glass, metal, food, other) leaves your home from this (think about all the components of your groceries, not just food). Does this add up to 100 pounds? Why or why not?

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a weekly amount of 100 pounds, you ask us if the waste would be 100 pounds in the same way.

We can say that more information is needed to estimate the waste that leaves the house. In the case that 100 pounds would come out, we consider that dry and wet waste have a distribution of 50-50%, 50 pounds of dry waste and 50 pounds of wet waste will leave the house.

If not, we wouldn't know how much could come out. since there are other factors that could influence it to be a greater or lesser quantity, in the case of a greater quantity of waste that is consumed outside the home and in the case of less, it is that the food is not consumed in its entirety.

elena55 [62]

The part that represents the solution to the inequality will be Part B shaded below first line and above second line.

<h3>How to depict the inequality?</h3>

From the information given, the equation of the first line will be:

y - 3 = (-3 - 3/2 + 4)(x + 4)

y - 3 = -1(x + 4)

y + x = -4 + 3

x + y = -1

The equation of the second line will be:

y + 3 = -1(x + 4)

y = x + 4 - 3

y = x + 1

This is plotted on the graph attached.

From the systems of equations, the statement that is correct about the two systems of equations is that They will have the same solution because the first equation of System B is obtained by adding the first equation of System A to 3 times the second equation of System A.
