X < = 1 or x > 8
closed circle on 1, shaded to the left
open circle on 8, shaded to the right
Let's assume
number of small notebooks =x
number of large notebooks =y
we are given
total number of notebooks =31
so, we get

now, we can solve for y

we have
Small notebooks cost $3.50 and large notebooks cost $5.00
she has $134 to spend
so, we get

now, we can plug y





now, we can find y


so,
number of small notebooks is 14
number of large notebooks is 17.............Answer
Linear means the highest exponent on the placholder is 1
it is also just a straight line
y=|x| is like y=(√x)², it is 2 straight lines
B. y=x², exponent is 2 so no
C. y=-3x³, exponent is 3, so no
D. y=1/4x, yep
D is the answer
It has to be the last one, D. I did it over 3 times to make sure.
1/2 are science because if you make 1/3, 2/6 + 1/6= 3/6. 3/6 = 1/2. 1/2 and 1/2 make a whole.
