Answer:

The graph in the attached figure

One possible solution is the ordered pair (3,8)

see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ---> the number of hours walking dogs

y ----> the number of hours clearing tables

we know that

He can work no more than 12 total hours

so

x+y\leq 12 ----> inequality A

He must earn a minimum of $100

so

8x+10y\geq 100 ----> inequality B  

Solve the system of inequalities by graphing

using a graphing tool

The solution is the triangular shaded area

see the attached figure

Remember that

If a ordered pair is a solution of the system of inequalities, then the ordered pair must lie in the shaded area of the solution set (the ordered pair makes true both inequalities)

so

One possible solution is the ordered pair (3,8)

That means

In the given week, the number of hours walking dogs was 3 and the number of hours clearing tables was 8

<u><em>Verify algebraically</em></u>

Substitute the value of x and the value of y in the inequality A and in the Inequality B

<em>inequality A</em>

3+8\leq 12

11\leq 12 ----> is true

<em>Inequality B</em>

8(3)+10(8)\geq 100

104\geq 100 ---> is true

therefore

the ordered pair (3,8) is a possible solution of the system

A food truck sells salads for $6.50 each and drinks for $2.00 each. The food truck’s revenue from selling a total of 209 salads
lord [1]
Create an equation to figure out how much salad was sold that day. S is for the number of salads. D is for the number of drinks.

$6.5s + $2d = $836.5
<span>s + d = 209
</span><span>s = 209 - d

Plug in the values. 

</span>6.5 (209 - d) + 2d = 836.5

1358.5 - 6.5d + 2d = 836.5
-4.5d = -522
d = 116

<span>s = 209 - 116
= 93
</span>
