If a bag of pumpkin seeds must weigh within 2.1 grams in order to be accepted, each bags must weigh between (400-2.1) grams and (400+2.1) grams. This means that if a bag weighs less than 397.9 grams (x<397.9) or more than 402.1 grams (x>402.1) it will be rejected. Therefore, 397.9>x>402.1 is the range of rejected bags.

Answer:

x397.9 \ grams

Step-by-step explanation:

The range of rejected bags is found by summing and subtracting the 400 grams to 2.1 grams, because the second one represent the acceptable margin.

So, we have:

(400-2.1) \ grams

However, this interval represents the accepted range. The rejected range would be the opposite. Therefore, the asked range is:

x397.9 \ grams

Y = -x - 1 and y = 1/2x + k intersect at the point (-2,1). Find the value of k.
Lena [83]

Answer:

k = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

(-2,1) =  (x,y)   So you substitute -2 and 1 for x and y

1 = -(-2) - 1    1 = 1/2 × -2 + k

1/2 × -2 = -1       -1 + 2 = 1

k = 2           1 = 1/2 × -2 + 2
