Darcie wants to crochet a minimum of 3 blankets to donate to a homeless shelter. Darcie crochets at a rate of 1/15 of a blanke
t per day. She has 60 days until when she wants to donate the blankets, but she also wants to skip crocheting some days so she can volunteer in other ways. Write an inequality to determine the number of days, s, Darcie can skip crocheting and still meet her goal. Graph the solution set to this inequality.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that Darcie wants to donate minimum 3 blankets to donate to a homeless shelter. No of days left =60
No of days to complete one blanket = 1/(1/15) = 15 days
Hence in 60 days she has to complete ≥3 blankets
No of days she has to utilize for this will be ≥3(15)=45
No of days she can skip crocheting ≤15
Let x be the no of days crocheted and y no of days skipped
Then x+y≤60
See the graph attached as x axis for days crocheted and y for days skipped
No of blankets can be either 3 or 4.

Answer:
42. Graph a
43. Not possible.
44. Graph e
45. Graph c
46. Graph b.
Step-by-step explanation:
42. 7x + 13 ≥ 55
⇒ x ≥ 6
So, it matches graph a.
43. 12x - 8 > 4(3x + 2)
⇒ 12x - 8 > 12x + 8
Hence, d. not possible.
44.
⇒
⇒ x > - 8
Hence, graph e matches.
45. - 4(- 2x + 3) ≤ 5 + 8x
⇒ 8x - 12 ≤ 5 + 8x
⇒ - 12 ≤ 5
This is true for all values of x, hence that matches graph c.
46. - 4(x + 3) > 8(x + 3)
⇒ - 4x - 12 > 8x + 24
⇒ 12x < - 36
⇒ x < - 3
Hence, graph b matches the situation. (Answer)
