The saying "A picture is worth a thousand words" comes to mind here. You can list all of the possible points in a solution region, or you can list a few points to give the general pattern. Though this method requires a bit more work than simply graphing and showing the solution shaded region. A visual is often more efficient at conveying a message especially to those who aren't proficient with algebra. I'm sure there are other reasons why graphs are the better choice, but that's all I could think of really.

The number of solutions to an inequality is infinite. You couldn't possibly list them. That's why a graph or set notation has to be used.

examples:

x ≥ 5
The solution set is [5, infinity) in set notation or a graph showing the shaded area above x = 5

two variable ...

y > 2x+1
solution set must be graphed because it's every point above the line y = 2x+1 all the way to infinity.

you can't possibly list all the solutions. Not even for a system of inequalities where the solution set is defined by boundaries can you list all the solutions because there are still an infinite number of points within the bounds.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost for 78 students is $279.

If s is the number of students and you have 78 students attending, do 3*78 first. You should get 234, then once you get that total, don't forget to add 45 dollars onto it.

You can ignore a and b but can someone help me with c and d plz :)
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

(below)

Step-by-step explanation:

c) the angles are in the interior on the same side of the transversal, making them supplementary

equation: 2x + 20 + 120=180 and then when solved you would get x =20

d) the angles are corresponding, which makes them congruent

equation: 3x + 10 = 100 and then when solved you would get x = 30

You are working on an experiment where you want to test the effects of caffeinated beverages on the behavior of cats. You will t
vichka [17]
For the experiment, you need 2L of cola. Your first option would be to purchase 1 2L bottle of cola for $2.25. 

To calculate the second option, let's convert milliliters to liters first. There are 1,000 milliliters in 1 liter. With this, we know that there are 2,000 milliliters in 2 liters. Option 2 comes in 500-milliliter cans, which means that you would need 4 of them (2,000/500 = 4). 4 cans multiplied by $0.50 would cost you $2.00. 

Let's check the cost of your answer options.
A. 4 cans - As seen above, this would cost $2.00.
B. 1 bottle - From the question, we know this would cost $2.25.
C. 2 bottles - This would be more soda than you need and would cost $4.50 ($2.25x2)
D. 1 can - This would be .5L and not enough soda for the experiment.
E. 5 cans - This would cost $2.50, but would be an extra 500mL of soda.
F. 2 cans - This would only be 1L of soda and not enough for the experiment.
G. 3 cans - This would be 1.5L of soda and not enough for the experiment either.

For the best price option, you would choose A (four cans of soda). This would give you the amount of soda that you need at the lowest price.
