Shane and Abha earned a team badge that required their team to collect no less than 2000 cans for recycling. Abha collected 178

more cans than Shane did. Write an inequality to determine the number of cans, S, that Shane could have collected. What is the solution set of the inequality?

Answer: [911,∞)


Step-by-step explanation:

Given: S be the number of cans collected by Shane.

Since,  Abha collected 178 more cans than Shane did.

Then, the number of cans collected by Abha = S+178

Also, Shane and Abha earned a team badge that required their team to collect no less than 2000 cans for recycling.

So, S+178+S\geq2000

\\\Rightarrow\ 2S\geq2000-178\\\Rightarrow2S\geq1822\\\Rightarrow\ S\geq911

Hence, the solution set of the inequality will be [911,∞)

PLS HELP ASAP If -2 is added to each of the x and y intercepts of the line 3x + 2y = 6, find the new equation of the line
ella [17]

Answer:

3x + 2y = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

x intercept of the line occurs at y = 0

Given the equation 3x+2y = 6

3x+2(0) = 6

3x  = 6

x = 2

The x intercept is at (2, 0)

Adding -2 to each axis will give (2-2, 0-2) = (0, -2)

y intercept of the line occurs at x = 0

Given the equation 3x+2y = 6

3(0)+2y = 6

2y  = 6

y =3

The x intercept is at (0, 3)

Adding -2 to each axis will give (0-2, 3-2) = (-2, 1)

The new coordinates are (0, -2 and (-2, 1)

Using the point slope form of the equation y - y0 = m(x-x0)

slope m = y2-y1/x2-x1

m = 1-(-2)/-2-0

m = 1+2/-2

m = -3/2

Using m = -3/2 and (0, -2)

y - (-2) = -3/2(x-0)

y+2 = -3/2 x

2(y+2) = -3x

2y+4 = -3x

-3x-2y = 4

3x + 2y = -4

Hence the required equation is 3x + 2y = -4

if one card is drawn from a regular deck of cards, what is the probability the card will not be an ace?
satela [25.4K]

There are 52 cards in a deck of cards so that makes 52 your denominator. There are 4 aces in a deck of cards, so 52 - 4 = 48 making 48 your numerator. so the probability the card won't be an ace is 48 out of 52.

48/52 chance that the card will not be an ace.

Hope this helps you. :-)

Steps to solving y=2x+3 x=y-8
tatuchka [14]
First, plug in x=y-8 to y=2x+3
Next, it would be y=2(y-8)+3
Then, you need to distribute: y= 2y-16+3
After that, move 2y to the other side: -y= -13 (notice I also did -16+3)
Finally, divide negatives into both sides: y=13

Now to find x just plug in 13 to either of the equations: 13=2x+3
Then solve: x=5
So the FINAL answer is: (5,13)
Hope this helps!!!!!!!
