Answer: The number of books she should put on each shelf = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Total books = 116

Total shelves = 16

To determine : The number of books she should put on each shelf, we first divides the total number of books by the total shelf.

116\div 16=7\dfrac14

So she can put 7 books in each shelf such that (7x16=) 112 books got placed and (116-112=)4 books left.

Hence, The number of books she should put on each shelf = 7.

The air temperature is -6 degrees celsius every hour for several hours. The air temperature after x hours is represented by the
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

x-intercept is (2,0)  [The x-intercept means that it takes 2 hours for the temperature to reach 0°C]

y-intercept is (0, -6)  [The y-intercept represents the temperature at sunrise, -6°C]

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Complete Question:</u>

<em>The air temperature is -6 degrees celcius at sunrise and rises 3 degree celcius every hour for several hours. The air temperature after x hours is represented by the function f(x) = 3x - 6. Find the x-intercept and y-intercept and interpret their meaning.</em>

<em />

  • The x-intercept is the x-axis cutting point found by setting y = 0 [function = 0]
  • The y-intercept is the y-axis cutting point found by setting x = 0

Lets find x-intercept first:

f(x) = 3x - 6

0 = 3x - 6

3x = 6

x = 6/3

x = 2

x-intercept is (2,0)

Now, lets find y-intercept:

f(x) = 3x - 6

f(x) = 3(0) - 6

f(x) = -6

y-intercept is (0, -6)

The x-intercept means that it takes 2 hours for the temperature to reach 0°C

The y-intercept represents the temperature at sunrise, -6°C

Nando is on a rehabilitation program following a car accident. For the first month, he needs to exercise at most five hours per
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of hours per week Nando is brisk walking  and y be the number of hours per week Nando is  biking at a moderate pace.

For the first month, he needs to exercise at most five hours per week, then

x+y\le 5

Brisk walking burns about 350 calories per hour, then it burns 350x calories per x hours.

Biking at a moderate pace burns about 700 calories per hour, then it burns 700y calories per y hours.

Nando must burn at least 2,000 calories per week, so

350x+700y\ge 2,000

You get the system of two inequalities:

\left\{\begin{array}{l}x+y\le 5\\ 350x+700y\ge 2,000\end{array}\right.

The attached graph shows the solution set to this system of inequalities. In this diagram, red region represents the solution set to the first inequality, blue region represents the solution set to the second inequality and their intersection is the solution set to the system of two inequalities.
