we have

1.25 < x < 1.5

Scenarios

case a) A container of milk costs at least $1.25 but less than $1.50

Let

x-------> container of milk costs

we know that

x\geq 1.25\\ x < 1.50\\ 1.25\leq  x < 1.50

this scenario can not be represented with the inequality of the problem

case b) A student spends at least 1 hour 15 minutes, but no more than 1 hour 30 minutes on homework

Let

x-------> time spend in homework in hours

we know that

1 hour 15 minutes is equal to 1.25 hours

1 hour 30 minutes is equal to 1.50 hours

so

x\geq 1.25\\ x < 1.50\\ 1.25\leq x < 1.50

this scenario can not be represented with the inequality of the problem

case c) A tip added to a restaurant bill is less than or equal to 25% or less than or equal to 50%

we know that

increase a number 25% is equal to multiply the number by1.25

increase a number 50% is equal to multiply the number by 1.50

Let

x-------> a tip added to a restaurant bill

x\leq 1.25\\ or\\ x\leq 1.50\\ \\   x \leq 1.50

this scenario can not be represented with the inequality of the problem

case d) The point value of a test item is more than 1.25 points and less than 1.5 points.

Let

x---------> the point value of a test

we know that

x > 1.25\\ x < 1.50\\ 1.25 < x < 1.50

this scenario can be represented with the inequality of the problem

therefore

the answer is

The scenario that can be represented with the inequality of the problem is the option

The point value of a test item is more than 1.25 points and less than 1.5 points.

Among the choices, the most likely scenario to be represented by the inequality 1.25 < x < 1.5 would be " <span>a container of milk costs at least $1.25 but less than $1.50</span><span> ". This could be applied to when a person on a budget would be shopping for milk. The person could spend at least $1.25 if the chat would be the price of the cheapest brand of milk, but should not spend more than $1.50 on more expensive brands, as the person is on a budget.</span>

Answer if u love cats &amp; dogs
eimsori [14]

Answer:

<em>(7, 5.25)</em> lies on the graph.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following values

x = 4,   6,  8, 12 and corresponding y values are:

y = 3, 4.5, 6, 9

Let us consider two points (4, 6) and (6, 4.5) and try to find out the equation of line.

Equation of a line passing through two points (x_1,y_1) and (x_2,y_2) is given as:

y=mx+c

where m is the slope.

(x,y) are the coordinates from where the line passes.

c is the y intercept.

Here,

x_{1} = 4\\x_{2} = 6\\y_{1} = 3\\y_{2} = 4.5

Formula for slope is:

m = \dfrac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

m = \dfrac{4.5-3}{6-4}\\\Rightarrow m = \dfrac{1.5}{2}\\\Rightarrow m = \dfrac{3}{4}

Now, the equation of line becomes:

y=\dfrac{3}{4}x+c

Putting the point (4,3) in the above equation to find <em>c</em>:

3=\dfrac{3}{4}\times 4+c\\\Rightarrow 3=3+c\\\Rightarrow c =0

So, final equation of given function is:

y=\dfrac{3}{4}x

OR

4y=3x

As per the given options, the point <em>(7, 5.25) </em>satisfies the equation.

So correct answer is (7, 5.25).
