Answer:

  • see the attachment for a graph
  • yes, you can carry 5 math books in one load (along with 0–2 science books)

Step-by-step explanation:

If x and y represent the number of math and science books you're carrying, respectively, then 3x and 4y represent their weights in pounds.

The total weight of the carry will be 3x+4y, and you want that to be at most 24 pounds. The expression modeling this is ...

... 3x +4y ≤ 24

A graph of this inequality is shown in the attachment. (We have added the constraints that the number of books not be negative.)

___

5 math books will weigh 5·3 = 15 pounds, so will be within the limit you can carry.

Point A is located at (5, 10) and point B is located at (20, 25).
Alla [95]
Let's say the point is C, so C partitions AB into two pieces, where AC is at a ratio of 3 and CB is at  a ratio of 7, thus 3:7,

\bf \left. \qquad  \right.\textit{internal division of a line segment}
\\\\\\
A(5,10)\qquad B(20,25)\qquad
\qquad 3:7
\\\\\\
\cfrac{AC}{CB} = \cfrac{3}{7}\implies \cfrac{A}{B} = \cfrac{3}{7}\implies 7A=3B\implies 7(5,10)=3(20,25)\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
{ C=\left(\cfrac{\textit{sum of "x" values}}{\textit{sum of ratios}}\quad ,\quad \cfrac{\textit{sum of "y" values}}{\textit{sum of ratios}}\right)}\\\
-------------------------------

\bf C=\left(\cfrac{(7\cdot 5)+(3\cdot 20)}{3+7}\quad ,\quad \cfrac{(7\cdot 10)+(3\cdot 25)}{3+7}\right)
\\\\\\
C=\left( \cfrac{35+60}{10}~~,~~\cfrac{70+75}{10} \right)\implies C=\left(\cfrac{95}{10}~~,~~\cfrac{145}{10}  \right)
\\\\\\
C=\left( \cfrac{19}{2}~~,~~\cfrac{29}{2} \right)\implies C=\left( 9\frac{1}{2}~~,~~14\frac{1}{2}  \right)
