Question

Solve the inequality! PLEASE HELP I’LL MARK BRAINLIEST!!

Answer 1

Answer:

1.) X = 7 and Y = 5

2.) 5 streamers

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question, you are given the inequality equation of

2.5x + 3.5y < = 35

Since the equation is less than or equal to, than means that the equation can be 2.5x + 3.5y = 35

According to the graph,

X = 14 and Y = 10

Substitute both into the equation if it will not exceed 35

2.5(14) + 3.5(10) = 35

35 + 35 = 70. This is wrong.

Take the half value of both x and y and substitute again

X = 7 and Y = 5

2.5(7) + 3.5(5)

17.5 + 17.5 = 35

Therefore, she can buy 7 helium - filled balloons and 5 streamers

2.) If Julie buy 6 ballons, substitute x for 6 in the inequality equation to find y

2.5(6) + 3.5y < = 35

Open the bracket

15 + 3.5y < = 35

Collect the like terms

3.5y <= 35 - 15

3.5y <= 20

Make y the subject of formula

Y <= 20/3.5

Y < = 5.7

We can therefore conclude that she can buy 5 streamers. Or 5 1/2 if possible.
