Answer:

The inequality that describes the situation is:

$x \geq 8.75$

Step-by-step explanation:

The minimum hourly pay for working in Maryland is $8.75.

This means that the hourly pay for working, which is represented by variable x, has to be equal or greater than 8.75. So the inequality that describes the situation is:

$x \geq 8.75$

Which of the following has a solution set of {x | x = 0}?

Oliga [24]

Middle option.

(x + 1 ≤ 1) ∩ (x + 1 ≥ 1)

If you work both sides separately you get

(x ≤ 0) ∩ (x ≥ 0)

which reduces nicely to

{x | x = 0}

Raul plans to run 30 miles this week. He wants to run the same number of miles each day of the week. He says he will run 7/30 mi

dmitriy555 [2]

No, because if he runs 7/30 mile each day he will run 210 miles each week because he is running 30 miles every day so he has to run 7/4.28 miles each day of the week to get 30 miles each week.
