Complete Question

A baseball team had $1,000 to spend on supplies. The team spent $185 on a new bat. New baseballs cost $4 each.

The inequality 185 + 4b ≤ 1,000 can be used to determine the number of new baseballs (b) that the team can

purchase. Which statement about the number of new baseballs that can be purchased is true?

A. The team can purchase 204 new baseballs.

B. The minimum number of new baseballs that can be purchased is 185.

C. The maximum number of new baseballs that can be purchased is 185.

D. The team can purchase 185 new baseballs, but this number is neither the

maximum nor the minimum.

Answer:

D. The team can purchase 185 new baseballs, but this number is neither the maximum nor the minimum.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step would be to solve the given equation:

185 + 4b ≤ 1000

4b ≤ 1000 - 185

4b ≤ 815

Divide both sides by 4

b ≤ 203.75

The maximum amount of baseballs the team can buy is 203. This means that they can buy 203 or less than that amount.

Of all the options give, option D is the correct option because the team can purchase 185 new baseballs, but this number is neither the maximum nor the minimum.

The maximum number of ball they can buy is 203 balls and the minimum is zero.

True or false: two points with the same x-coordinate are always on the same vertical line
Vesna [10]
True, you can even test it out yourself. If the domain (x) is the same then it will be a vertical line. Like if you graphed (1,2) (1,4), (1,6) it will be a vertical line on your graph. I hope this helps!
