Answer:
A
B. No
Step-by-step explanation:
The winning swim team camned 245 points.
The other teams earned at least 72 points less, this means the other teams earned 72 points less, or 73 points less, or 74 points less, ...
The greatest number of points the other teams earned is
245 - 72 = 173 points
A. Let x be the number of points the other teams earned. So, the inequality that represents the points that the other teams earned is
B. The winning team earned 245 points (not 180 points). Each other team earned 173 points or less, so there are no teams which earned 180 points.

we know that
If a ordered pair (x,y) is a solution of the equation, then the ordered pair must satisfy the equation
we have the equation
Let's verify all the cases to determine the solution to the problem.
<u>case A)</u> point
Substitute the values of x and y in the equation
-------> is true
therefore
The point is a solution of the equation
<u>case B)</u> point
Substitute the values of x and y in the equation
-------> is true
therefore
The point is a solution of the equation
<u>case C)</u> point
Substitute the values of x and y in the equation
-------> is not true
therefore
The point is not a solution of the equation
<u>case D)</u> point
Substitute the values of x and y in the equation
-------> is not true
therefore
The point is not a solution of the equation
therefore
