< or > : dashed line
≤ or ≥ : solid line
< or ≤ : shade below the line
> or ≥ : shade above the line
<u>To graph the line y < 3x-2</u>
Rewrite the equation as: y = 3x - 2
Find two points on the line:
when x = 0, y = 3(0) - 2 = -2 → (0, -2)
when x = 3, y = 3(3) - 2 = 7 → (3, 7)
Plots the found points (0, -2) and (3, 7).
Draw a straight, dashed line through the points.
<u>To graph the line y ≥ -x + 3</u>
Rewrite the equation as: y = -x + 3
Find two points on the line:
when x = 0, y = -(0) + 3 = 3 → (0, 3)
when x = 3, y = -(3) + 3 = 0 → (3, 0)
Plots the found points (0, 3) and (3, 0).
Draw a straight, solid line through the points.
Shade above the solid line and below the dashed line to the right of where the two lines intersect. <u>The shaded area is the area of all possible solutions</u>.
Answer: a.) 72 of each type of animal, for a total of 216
b.) 16 grown cats, 4 kittens
Step-by-step explanation:
part a. It's a distribution (division) problem. The same number of each animal is distributed over some unknown number of troughs, but the total number of troughs adds up to 69. ( I hate to give this all away, as its a brilliant problem! )
Number of troughs for each animal type is How many needed by the number of animals per trough:
h/2 + c/3 + p/8 = 69
Since we are given "the same number of horses, cows and pigs" we can substitute "x" for all.
Get a common denominator. 24 would work, 48 also.
24x + 16x + 6x = 3372
46x = 3372 x = 72
Proof: calculate the number of each kind of trough
Horses 72/2 = 36, Cows 72/3 = 24 Pigs 72/8 = 9 36+24+9 = 69
part b. 5c + 3k = 92, c + k = 20 Rearrange to get a value for c to substitute.
c = 20-k 5(20-k) +3k =92 Distribute and solve
100 - 5k + 3k = 92 becomes -2k = -8 so k = 4 Substitute into the original
c + 4 = 20 becomes c=20-4, so c = 16
Proof: 5c +3k = 92 Substitute values 5(16) + 3(4) = 92 80 + 12 = 92
