Answer: YES

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

  8p - 2q = 14

8(1) - 2(-3) = 14

8   -    -6   = 14

 8    +   6  = 14

       14      = 14

            TRUE

(p, q) = (1, -3)

Plug in the corresponding numbers to the corresponding variable

8p - 2q = 14

8(1) - 2 (-3) = 14

Simplify. Remember to follow PEMDAS. First, multiply

8 x 1 = 8

-2 x -3 = 6

8 + 6 = 14

Finally, add

(8 + 6) = 14

14 = 14 (True)

Yes, (1, -3) is a solution for 8p - 2q = 14

A warehouse contains 7250 books in it. Books are being shipped from the warehouse such that the number of books decreased by 150
Lapatulllka [165]

Using an linear function, we have that:

  • The inequality is: -150D + 7250 < 2000
  • The warehouse will start printing more books on the 35th day, hence it won't be printing on the 30th day.

<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

  • m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
  • b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.

In this problem:

  • A warehouse contains 7250 books in it, hence b = 7250.
  • Books are being shipped from the warehouse such that the number of books decreased by 150 per day, hence m = -150.

Thus, the number of books each day is modeled by the following function:

B(D) = -150D + 7250

It will begin to print more books when the warehouse contains less than 2000 books, hence, the inequality is:

B(D) < 2000

-150D + 7250 < 2000

Then:

-150D < -5250

150D > 5250

D > \frac{5250}{150}

D > 35

The warehouse will start printing more books on the 35th day, hence it won't be printing on the 30th day.

Chaucer explores the idea that appearances can be deceiving through the character of the old woman. how does this theme relate t
Inessa [10]
Since the plot of "The Wife of Bath's Tale" has at its heart a loathly lady who shape-shifts into a beautiful, young damsel, we might expect appearances to be important here. And they are, just not for the reason you might think. For instead of this being a tale about how a knight learns to appreciate people for what's on the inside and that outer appearances don't matter, it's a tale about how a knight learns to give up sovereignty to his wife. That sovereignty includes power over the body. The loathly lady's physical appearance becomes an important symbol of that body, so that, at the end of the tale, when she offers her husband a choice about how he wants her to look, she's in essence offering him control of her body. He grants this control back to her, thus proving his understanding of the doctrine of women's sovereignty in marriage. Medieval stories don't necessarily go in for the whole 'appearances don't mean anything' maxim anyway, as we've seen in the "General Prologue<span>."</span>
