You don't need to start with the greater number. Either order of numbers will work because addition had a communitive property, meaning it can be added in any order to get the same answer.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Explanation:
First, find two points on the line if you change the inequality to an equation.
For
x
=
0
:
0
+
2
y
=
4
2
y
=
4
2
y
2
=
4
2
y
=
2
or
(
0
,
2
)
For
y
=
0
:
x
+
0
=
4
x
=
4
or
(
4
,
0
)
We can plot these two points and draw a line through them to get the border of the inequality:
graph{(x^2+(y-2)^2-0.075)((x-4)^2+y^2-0.075)(x+2y-4)=0}
The line will be solid because the inequality operator has a "or equal to" clause in it. We can now shade the area to the right of the line because the inequality has a "great than" clause in it.
graph{(x+2y-4)>=0}
If there is more information then you should use it but if that is then yes it is possible if you think hard enough.
Your proportion is
(65 mi)/(19 gal) = (x mi)/(57 gal)
Multiply by (57 gal/mi) to solve the problem.
57(65/19) = x = 195
The boat can travel 195 miles on 57 gallons of gas.
