14 / (4/9) = x / 1....14 pencils to 4/9 hr = x pencils to 1 hr
cross multiply
(4/9)(x) = (14)(1)
4/9x = 14
x = 14 / (4/9)
x = 14 * 9/4
x = 126/4
x = 31.5 <===

60 +  \frac{4}{9}  = 26.66 \\ 60 \div 26.66 = 2.255
so that means if she uses 14 in 4/9 of an hour you multiply the 14 by 2.255
2.255 \times 14 = 31.57

gayaneshka [121]
I made my own graph using the given points. Pls. see attachment. 

<span>Part A: Using the graph above, create a system of inequalities that only contains points D and F in the overlapping shaded regions. Explain how the lines will be graphed and shaded on the coordinate grid above.

I used paint program to graph the points based on the given data. 
I used a ruler as guide as I draw my line containing both points D and F and extended the line outward.
The yellow lines above represents the shaded portion of the graph.

y = mx + b

b is the y-intercept. It is the value of y when x is 0. In this case, b = 3.5
m is the slope. It is the change in y divided by the change in x. 
point D (2,4) ; point F (-2,3)
change in y: 4 - 3 = 1
change in x: 2 - (-2) = 4
m = 1/4

y = 1/4 x + 3.5 

Since we are looking for a system of inequality and the portion shaded is in the upper part of the line, the value of y will be greater than or equal to.

y </span>≥ 1/4x + 3.5<span>

Part B: Explain how to verify that the points D and F are solutions to the system of inequalities created in Part A.

To check the solution given above. We will use the x values of points D and F and check whether its y values are equal to or greater than the solution.</span>

y ≥ 1/4x + 3.5

Point D (2,4) : x = 2 : y ≥ 1/4 * 2 + 3.5 → 0.5 + 3.5 → 4
Point F (-2.3): x = -2 ; y ≥ 1/4 * -2 + 3.5 → -0.5 + 3.5 → 3
<span>
Part C: Chickens can only be raised in the area defined by y > 2x − 2. Explain how you can identify farms in which chickens can be raised.

y > 2x - 2

We will get the coordinates of each point and see if its x value will generate the desired value of y.

A(2,-3) ; x = 2 : </span><span>y > 2(2) - 2 </span>→ 4 - 2 → 2 . DID NOT PASS. -3 is lesser than 2.<span>
B(-3,-4) ; x = -3 : y > 2(-3) - 2 </span>→ -6 - 2 → -8. PASSED. -4 is greater than -8.<span>
C(-4,2) ; x = -4 : y > 2(-4) - 2 </span>→ -8 - 2 → -10. PASSED. 2 is greater than -10.<span> 
D(2,4) ; x = 2 : y > 2(2) - 2 </span>→ 4 - 2 → 2. PASSED. 4 is greater than 2.<span>
E(3,1) ; x = 3 : y > 2(3) - 2 </span>→ 6 - 2 → 4. DID NOT PASS. 1 is lesser than 4.<span>
F(-2,3) ; x = -2 ; y > 2(-2) - 2 </span>→ -4 - 2 → -6. PASSED. 3 is greater than -6.

Among the farms, points B,C, D, and F can raise chickens based on the given system of linear inequality.

PLEASE HURRY AND SOLVE!!!!
MissTica

Answer:

The constant of proportionality is 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall the equation for direct variation is y=kx where y varies directly with x and k is the constant of proportionality. If we take any listed coordinate point, we can determine the value of k. I will use (20,120) as an example:

y=kx\\\\120=k(20)\\\\6=k

Therefore, the constant of proportionality is 6

What is the value of t<br><br> HELP
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

t = 8°

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the sum of all the angles in a triangle is equal to 180°

Let's set up our equation => 18t + 36 = 180

Subtract 36 from both sides

18t = 144

t = 8

Thus, we have our answer
