In a certain town, the wind speed, x, in km/h on a certain day is described by two statements: If 2 times the wind speed is incr

eased by 2, the wind speed is still less than 46 km/h. Twice the wind speed minus 27 is greater than 11 km/h. Part A: Create a compound inequality to represent the wind speed range. (3 points) Part B: Can the wind speed in this town be 20 km/h? Justify your answer by solving the inequalities in Part A. (3 points) Part C: The average wind speed in another town is 23 km/h, but the actual wind speed is within 4 km/h of the average. Write and solve an inequality to find the range of wind speed in this town.

<span>1) if 2 times the wind speed is increased by 2, the wind speed is still less than 46 km/h.

=> 2x + 2 < 46

2) Twice the wind speed minus 27 is greater than 11 km/h.

=> 2x - 27 > 11

Part A: Create a compound inequality to represent the wind speed range. (3 points)


from 2x + 2 < 46

=> 2x < 44

=> x < 22

from 2x - 27 > 11

=> 2x > 11 + 27

=> 2x > 38

=> x > 19

The set of inequalities is

2x + 2 <46
2x - 27 > 11

The solution is x < 22 and x > 19, which is:

19 < x < 22 <----- answer

Part B: Can the wind speed in this town be 20 km/h? Justify your answer by solving the inequalities in Part A. (3 points)

Yes, the wind speed can be 20 km/h, because the solution of the inequality is the range (19,22).

Part C: The average wind speed in another town is 23 km/h, but the actual wind speed is within 4 km/h of the average. Write and solve an inequality to find the range of wind speed in this town.

x ≥ 23 - 4 => x ≥ 19

x ≤ 23 + 4=> x ≤ 27

=> 19 ≤ x ≤ 27

=> [19,27]

A restaurant offers three sizes of coffee and four differerſt types of coffee.
Kruka [31]
<h3>Answer:  864</h3>

=======================================================

Work Shown:

There are,

  • 3 sizes of coffee
  • 4 types of coffee
  • 2 choices for cream (you pick it or you leave it out)
  • 2 choices for sugar (same idea as the cream)

This means there are 3*4*2*2 = 12*4 = 48 different coffees. We'll use this value later, so let A = 48.

There are 6 bagel options. Also, there are 3 choices in terms of if you order the bagel plain, with butter, or with cream cheese. This leads to 6*3 = 18 different ways to order a bagel. Let B = 18.

Multiply the values of A and B to get the final answer

A*B = 48*18 = 864

There are 864 ways to order a coffee and bagel at this restaurant.

--------------

If you're curious why you multiply the values out, consider this smaller example.

Let's say you had 3 choices of coffee and 2 choices for a bagel. Form a table with 3 rows and 2 columns. Place the different coffee choices along the left to form each row. Along the top, we'll have the two different bagel choices (one for each column).

This 3 by 2 table leads to 3*2 = 6 individual table cells inside. Each cell in the table represents a coffee+bagel combo. This idea is applied to the section above, but we have a lot more options.

(can u guys help me PLSSSSS ) A company sets sales goals for employees each month.
Pavlova-9 [17]
A. Kristina will sell 294 items in 28 days if she stays on her current pace.
B. She is not on track to meet the goal. By doing the math she would only sell around 294 items by day 28 when she needs to sell around 400 to reach her goal. if she keeps this pace she won’t reach that goal unless she is able to bump up her weekly count by 2-5 items then she can either hit the goal or go over.
