<h3>
Answer: A) Dashed line, shaded below</h3>
=============================================================
Explanation:
2x + 4y < 16 solves to y < -0.5x+4 when you isolate y. The inequality sign does not change direction because we divided both sides by a positive value (in this case, 4).
The graph of y < -0.5x+4 will be the same as the graph of 2x+4y < 16
To graph y < -0.5x+4, we graph y = -0.5x+4 which is a straight line that goes through the two points (0,4) and (2, 3). This is the boundary line of the inequality shaded region. The boundary line is a dashed line because we are not including points on the boundary that are part of the solution set. We only include these boundary points if the inequality sign has "or equal to".
We then shade below the dashed boundary line to indicate points below the boundary line. The shading is done downward due to the "less than" sign.
---------------------
Perhaps another method to find what direction we shade is we can try out a point like (0,0). The point cannot be on the boundary line.
Plug those coordinates into either equation. I'll pick the second equation
y < -0.5x+4
0 < -0.5*0+4
0 < 0+4
0 < 4
The last inequality is true, so the first inequality is also true when (x,y) = (0,0). Therefore, the point (0,0) is in the shaded region. The point (0,0) is below the boundary line y = -0.5x+4
So this is another way to see that the shaded region is below the boundary line.
This is not an equation because it lacks an equal sign....so the only thing we can do here is combine like terms.
4 - 2x - 12 - 2x + 1 =
-4x - 7
To split this trinomial into two binomials, let's try and find two numbers which add to 6 and multiply to 8. To do this, we can list all the factors of 8 and then choose which factors also add to 6.
Factors of 8: (1, 8), (2, 4)
1 + 8 = 9, meaning that 1 and 8 are not the factors we are looking for. However, 2 and 4 do add to 6. By combining these numbers which an x (so that we can produce the 
term at the front of the trinomial), we find the binomials:
and 
The answer is x + 2 and x + 4.
Answer:
A sample of 18 is required.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have that to find our 
level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:
Now, we have to find z in the Z-table as such z has a p-value of 
.
That is z with a pvalue of 
, so Z = 1.88.
Now, find the margin of error M as such
In which 
is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.
A previous study indicated that the standard deviation was 2.2 days.
This means that 
How large a sample must be selected if the company wants to be 92% confident that the true mean differs from the sample mean by no more than 1 day?
This is n for which M = 1. So
Rounding up:
A sample of 18 is required.
