Which inequality represents this situation ?
1.59×n < 20
How many charms can Marta purchase ?
20 : 1.59 = 12 (+$0.92)
The equation used above is y-intercept form.
ex. y = mx + b
Whatever is in front of the x is your slope.
Your slope is -3
10 <0.25 (x + 1) <11
We must solve two inequalities in this case.
Inequality 1:
10 <0.25 (x + 1)
10 / 0.25 <x + 1
40 <x + 1
40-1 <x
39 <x
Inequality 2:
0.25 (x + 1) <11
(x + 1) <11 / 0.25
(x + 1) <44
x <44-1
x <43
The final result is:
39 <x <43
Answer:
39 <x <43
Answers:
- x = 10
- angle CAT = 126 degrees
- angle MUD = 54 degrees
=========================================================
Explanation:
∠CAT and ∠MUD are supplementary, which means the angle measures add to 180. They form a straight line.
( m∠CAT ) + ( m∠MUD ) = 180
( 11x+16 ) + ( 4x+14 ) = 180
11x+16 + 4x+14 = 180
(11x+4x) + (16+14) = 180
15x+30 = 180
15x = 180-30
15x = 150
x = 150/15
x = 10
Let's find each angle based on this x value
- m∠CAT=11x+16 = 11*10+16 = 110+16 = 126 degrees
- m∠MUD=4x+14 = 4*10+14 = 40+14 = 54 degrees
Those two angles add to 126+54 = 180 to confirm we do indeed have supplementary angles, and confirm the correct answers.
