Answer: 12 friends.
Step-by-step explanation:
the data we have is:
Mei Su had 80 coins.
She gave the coins to her friends, in such a way that every friend got a different number of coins, then we have that:
The maximum number of friends that could have coins is when:
friend 1 got 1 coin
friend 2 got 2 coins
friend 3 got 3 coins
friend N got N coins
in such a way that:
(1 + 2 + 3 + ... + N) ≥ 79
I use 79 because "she gave most of the coins", not all.
We want to find the maximum possible N.
Then let's calculate:
1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 = 15
15 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 9 + 10 = 55
now we are close, lets add by one number:
55 + 11 = 66
66 + 12 = 78
now, we can not add more because we will have a number larger than 80.
Then we have N = 12
This means that the maximum number of friends is 12.
By using Geogebra online graphing calculator, the solution to this system of inequalities are plotted in the image attached below.
<h3>What is an inequality?</h3>
An inequality is a mathematical relation that compares two (2) or more integers and variables in an equation based on any of the following:
- Less than or equal to (≤).
- Greater than or equal to (≥).
Given the following system of inequalities:
3y > 2x + 12 ⇒ 3y - 2x > 12
2x + y ≤ -5

Answer:
Below.
Step-by-step explanation:
Plot following points.
Calculate the point by plugging in values of x into x^2 + 1
for example When x = 0, y = 0^1 + 1 = 1.
So plot plot (0, 1),
Make a table of points to plot:
x -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3
y 10 5 2 1 2 5 10
When you plot the points you'll see the graph is U shaped.
The function is of second degree (as it contains x^2) so it wont be linear.
Area=L multiply by W
