Answer:

see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the number of males on the elevator

y ----> the number of females on the elevator

we know that

The inequality that represent this situation is

180x+150y\leq 2,700

The solution of the inequality is the shaded area below the solid line 180x+150y=2,700

The slope of the solid line is negative

The y-intercept of the solid line is (0,18)

The x-intercept of the solid line is (15,0)

see the attached figure

The solution is the triangular shaded area

The maximum number of females is 18 (when the number of males is zero)

The maximum number of males is 15 (when the number of females is zero)

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Ms. Barcht's savings account can be modeled with the expression

50 + 25x

Mrs. Greene's savings account can be modeled with the expression

75x

Since the question is how many weeks Mrs. Greene will have more money than Ms. Bracht. we use an inequality to contain the all the solutions.

Mrs.Greene > Ms. Bracht

75x > 25x + 50

Marat540 [252]

Line segment XY begins at (-6,4) and ends at (-2,4); XY is reflected over the x-axis and translated left 3 units to form line segment X'Y' which has a length of 4 units.

<h3>What is a system of equations?</h3>

A system of equations is two or more equations that can be solved to get a unique solution. the power of the equation must be in one degree.

Line segment XY begins at (-6,4) and ends at (-2,4). Hence:

XY = \sqrt{(4-4)^2 + (-2 +6)^2} \\\\XY = \sqrt{0+16} \\\\XY = \sqrt{16} \\\\XY = 4

XY is reflected over the x-axis and translated left 3 units to form line segment X'Y'. Hence:

XY = X'Y' = 4 units

Line segment XY begins at (-6,4) and ends at (-2,4); XY is reflected over the x-axis and translated left 3 units to form line segment X'Y' which has a length of 4 units.

This is area right???
taurus [48]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

So permiter is two*lengths plus 2*width of a shape.

Area is the length times the width.

For examplel if a square has a length of 2, and a width of 3 the permiteter is:

2*2+3*3=

4+9

=

13

On the other hand, area  would be:

2*3

=

6

I hope this helps!
