Answer:

Pilar started with 80 and adds 10 each week.

y= 10x + 80 (ten seashells • weeks + 80 she started with)

Marisol started with 0 and adds 20 each week.

y = 20x (no need to add + 0 because she started with nothing)

Inequality:

y = 10x + 80 < y = 20x

I would reccomend just plugging in numbers (for example if I put in 5 I would determine if it was too high or low then go to the next number.)

I plugged it into an online graph so I can’t show my work but the answer is 8 weeks.

Answer:

a. 20x > 10x + 80

b.  •20x > 10x + 80

• Subtract 10x from both sides: 20x -10x > 10x + 80 - 10x

• Simplify: 10x > 80

• Divide both sides by 10:   10x/10 > 80/10

• Simplify: x > 8

Step-by-step explanation:

10x + 80 = number of seashells Pilar has.

20x = number of seashells Marisol has.  

answer for a:  20x > 10x + 80

answer for b: 20x > 10x + 80

• Subtract 10x from both sides: 20x -10x > 10x + 80 - 10x

• Simplify: 10x > 80

• Divide both sides by 10:   10x/10 > 80/10

• Simplify: x > 8

The soccer coach wonders how many students made 15 or more goals. She also wants to know the least number of goals made. Which d
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

If the soccer coach wants to know how many students made 15 or more goals then she should use the histogram because it is split in to different ranges so it’s easy for her to know how many students made 15 or more goals. If the soccer coach wants to know the least number of goals made she should use the dot plot because that shows the specific number of goals each student made while the histogram only gives an range.
