Explain how to determine whether a point is a solution to a linear inequality?

1 answer:

5 0

Answer:The solution of a linear inequality in two variables like Ax + By > C is an ordered pair (x, y) that produces a true statement when the values of x and y are substituted into the inequality.

Example

Is (1, 2) a solution to the inequality

2x+3y>1

2⋅1+3⋅2>?1

2+5>?1

7>1

The graph of an inequality in two variables is the set of points that represents all solutions to the inequality. A linear inequality divides the coordinate plane into two halves by a boundary line where one half represents the solutions of the inequality. The boundary line is dashed for > and < and solid for ≤ and ≥. The half-plane that is a solution to the inequality is usually shaded.

Find the number of permutations in the word CIRCUS.

DerKrebs [107]

If the letters are considered distinct, then the number of permutations is $6!=720$ .

If we count either C as the same character, then we would be double-counting - to correct this, we would simply divided by the number of ways we can choose C from the available characters, or $\dfrac{6!}{2!}=360$ .
