|-3 + 15| what is the sum (answer) ? I think it is 12 but my friend thinks it is 18. Who is right?
Aliun [14]
I do believe it is 12 as well considering the fact that it's negative three and not positive. If it was a positive three then maybe it would be 18.

1. Which ordered pairs are solutions to the inequality –3x + y ≥ 7?
Murrr4er [49]
Q1. The answers are (–1, 8), (0, 7), (3, 18)

<span>–3x + y ≥ 7
</span>Let's go through all choices:

<span>(–2, –3) 
</span>(-3) * (-2) + (-3) ≥ 7
6 - 3 ≥ 7
3 ≥ 7       INCORRECT

(–1, 8) 
(-3) * (-1) + 8 ≥ 7
3 + 8 ≥ 7
11 ≥ 7       CORRECT

(0, 7) 
(-3) * 0 + 7 ≥ 7
0 + 7 ≥ 7
7 ≥ 7       CORRECT

(1, 9) 
(-3) * 1 + 9 ≥ 7
-3 + 9 ≥ 7
6 ≥ 7       INCORRECT

(3, 18) 
(-3) * 3 + 18 ≥ 7
-9 + 18 ≥ 7
9 ≥ 7       CORRECT



Q2. The answers are:
5x + 12y ≤ 80
x ≥ 4
<span>y ≥ 0
</span>
<span>x - small boxes
</span><span>y - large boxes

</span>He has x small boxes that weigh 5 lb each and y large boxes that weigh 12 lb each <span>on a shelf that holds up to 80 lb:
5x + 12y </span>≤ 80

Jude needs at least 4 small boxes on the shelf: x ≥ 4

Let's check if y can be 0:
5x + 12y ≤ 80
5x + 12 * 0 ≤ 80
5x + 0 ≤ 80
5x ≤ 80
x ≤ 80 / 5
x ≤ 16

x ≥ 4 can include x ≤ 16

So, y can be 0: y ≥ 0

mom has a circle face shape (CC) dad has an oval face shape (cc). There are 4 boxes and 2 boxes on the top and left side. Please
My name is Ann [436]
Idk exactly what your question is asking, but I think you are doing genetics? If you are then you are talking about a punnet square. All four boxes should be heterozygous(Cc). Hope this helps.

Reflection: Across the line y = -1 ​
eduard

The A’ is your reflected shape. The red line is y=-1, or your line  right reflection.  To solve, I counted the distance from the red line on the original triangle, and then the same on the opposite side of the red line, and counted the same distance, plotting the points at the final spot.

What is the slope-intercept equation of the line that includes (0,7) and (3,10)?
maksim [4K]

\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{0}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{7})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{3}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{10}) \\\\\\ slope = m\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{10-7}{3-0}\implies \cfrac{3}{3}\implies 1 \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-7=1(x-0)\implies y-7=x\implies y=x+7
