Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Lin          54 pages               270-page book                   3 days

Diego   100 pages               320 page                             4 days

Elena   160 pages                480 page                             5 days

Process

Lin

                          54 pages      -------------------   3 days

                        270 page        -----------------      x

                          x = (270 x 3) / 54

                          x = 15 days

Diego

                        100 pages        -----------------   4 days

                        320                  --------------------   x

                        x = (320 x 4) / 100

                        x = 12.8 days

Elena    

                        160 pages -------------------   5 days

                       480 pages --------------------   x

                       x = (480 x 5) / 160

                       x = 15 days

Which points are solutions to the linear inequality y &lt; 0.5x +<br> 2? Select three options.
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

Options (1), (3), and (5)

Step-by-step explanation:

In the figure attached,

An inequality has been graphed and the shaded region shows its solutions.

Inequality : y < 0.5x + 2

If the given points in the options lie in the shaded region, point will satisfy the inequality.

For (3, -2)

-2 < 0.5(3) + 2

-2 < 3.5 [True]

Therefore, (3, -2) point is the solution.

For (-2, 1)

1 < 0.5(-2) + 2

1 < -1 + 2

1 < 1 [Not true]

Therefore, (-2, 1) is not the solution.

For (-1, -2)

-2 < 0.5(-1) + 2

-2 < 1.5 [True]

Therefore, (-1, -2) is the solution.

For (-1, 2)

2 < 0.5(-1) +2

2 < 1.5 [Not True]

Therefore, (-1, 2) is not the solution.

For (1, -2)

-2 < 0.5(1) + 2

-2 < 2.5 [True]

Therefore, (1, -2) is the solution.

Options (1), (3) and (5) will be the answer.
