Y ≥ 2x-5
y-intercept is -5, from there go 2 up 1 over ( slope is rise over run)
greater than or equal so the line is connected
now find the shaded area by plugging in (0,0)
0 ≥2(0)-5
0 ≥-5 is correct so shade the area that to the left of the line, (the whole area that including (0,0))
y<-3x
y intercept is 0 so start from there and go down 3 right 1 (or go up 3 left 1)
broken like cause no or equal sign
the (0,0) is on the line so use (1,1) to find the answer
1<-3(1) is incorrect so shade the area that dies not include (1,1) or the entire area to the left of that line
you can see the section where both shaded area cross, thats the answer so erase every area you shaded that isn’t the answer so
THE ANSWER IS C
Hi there
So, if the track is 1/8 of a mile, let's call every lap a "one-eighth mile" run. We know John ran 24 laps, or that he ran 24 "one-eighth miles," just consecutive, one right after another. Let's stop worrying about rates or tricks or math for a second, and just ask: how many real miles is 24 "one-eighth" miles? We know it's less than 24---a lot less, since you have to go around 8 times just to get to 1 mile. Well wait, if we go around 8 times, we get 1 mile. That means if we go around 28, or 16 times, we get 2 miles; And let's just think to the next full mile---if we go 38, or 24 times, we get 3 miles. He did go around 24 times, so he must have run 3 miles on a 1/8 track.
Division and multiplication are inverses of each other. So we solved this by looking for an intuition for how many full miles corresponded to how many laps, with a bunch of steps of multiplication. But you can cut right to the chase and solve it faster with division---24 laps * 1 mile per 8 laps, means:
total distance = 24 Lap (1 mi / 8 Lap) total distance = 24/8 total distance = 3
