Question

Which represents the solution to 7x > 21 or 6x - 9 < 21?

Answer 1

Answer:

1) The correct option is the third line

2) The correct option is the third line please see attached graph

Step-by-step explanation:

For the system of inequalities,

7·x > 21 or 6·x -9 < 21 we have;

7·x > 21

x > 21/3 = 3

x > 3

Also we have for 6·x -9 < 21 we have;

6·x -9 < 21

6·x < 21 + 9

6·x < 30

x < 30/6 = 5

x < 5

The representation of the region x > 3 and the region x < 5 on the number line consists of indicating points 3 and 5 with  circles not filled to represent less than < and not less than or equal to ≤ and shading the potion of the number line in between the two points

Which gives the correct option as the third line which has an open circle at point 3 and 5

b) To graph the inequality v + 4 > 2 and 8·v - 20 ≤ 36

For the inequality v + 4 > 2, we have;

v > 2 - 4

v > - 2

For the inequality 8·v - 20 ≤ 36, we have;

8·v - 20 ≤ 36

8·v  ≤ 36 + 20              

8·v  ≤ 56

v ≤ 56/8

v ≤  7

The region representing v > -2 or v ≤ 7 on the number line consists of indicating points -2 with a circle (not filled) to represent less than < and point 7 with a filled circle to represent less than or equal to ≤ and shading the potion of the number line in between the two points

Which gives the correct option is the third line which has a closed circle at point -2 and an open circle at point 7
