Step 1) Graph the line y = (-1/2)x + 3. This line goes through (0,3) as its y intercept and it also goes through (2,2). You can start at (0,3) and move down one unit and to the right two units to arrive at (2,2). The slope of the boundary line is -1/2, meaning that the rise is -1 and the run is 2. A negative rise indicates we go down instead of up.
Step 2) Make the line in step 1 to be a dashed line. This is because there is no "or equal to" as part of the inequality sign. The dashed line says that points on this line are not part of the solution set.
Step 3) Shade above the dashed line. We shade above due to the "greater than" sign. Points above the dashed line are in the shaded solution set. An alternative is to test a point like (x,y) = (0,0) and you'll find y > (-1/2)x+3 turn into 0 > 3 which is a false statement; therefore, (0,0) is not in the solution set. This is expected as (0,0) is below the dashed line.
The final result is what you see in the attached image below. Points A and B help set up the dashed boundary line. Point C is the test point mentioned above which is not in the blue shaded solution region.
Note: the points shown in the diagram are optional when it comes to showing the final answer to your teacher. All you need really is the boundary line and its proper shaded region.
Answer:
3 4/5
Step-by-step explanation:
7 3/5=38/5
38/5 divided by 2 = 19/5
19/5=3 4/5
Do you want to know what that would be in point slope form? Or what?
Answer:
minimum of 13 chairs must be sold to reach a target of $6500
and a max of 20 chairs can be solved.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Price of chair = $150
Price of table = $400
Let the number of chairs be denoted by c and tables by t,
According to given condition:
t + c = 30 ----------- eq1
t(150) + c(400) = 6500 ------ eq2
Given that:
10 tables were sold so:
t = 10
Putting in eq1
c = 20 (max)
As the minimum target is $6500 so from eq2
10(150) + 400c = 6500
400c = 6500 - 1500
400c = 5000
c = 5000/400
c = 12.5
by rounding off
c = 13
So a minimum of 13 chairs must be sold to reach a target of $6500
i hope it will help you!
Y intercept : (0,-15)
X intercept : (3,0)
Slope : (0 - (-15)) / (3-0) = 15 / 3 = 5
