The error occurred in step 2. You have to use the distributive property for the parenthesis. It is supposed to be 5p+15.
The correct solution is p>-13.
Answer:
2 stickers will be left over
Step-by-step explanation:
To answer the question, all you need to do is figure out at what value of stickers would the remaining stickers be equal to 2 if the piles are made up of either 3 to a set or 4 to a set. To do this, we need to figure out the size of the whole set of stickers.
Lets assume that the total number of stickers is 14. Lets test the 2 given conditions. If we divide it in piles of 3 then we will have a pile of 12 stickers (4 piles of 3 stickers each) with 2 stickers remaining.
Lets test the second condition. If we divide it in piles of 4, we will again have 12 stickers (3 piles of 4 stickers each) with 2 stickers remaining.
Now that both conditions have been satisfied, all we have to do is see how many stickers are left if we make a pile of 12 stickers. In this case, we will have just one pile of 12 stickers and, again, we will be left with 2 stickers.
Therefore, the answer is 2 stickers
If you are trying to find the y intercept then you have already found it, it is 4. From that point you would then draw the rest of the slope.
Instead of drawing from (0,0) you would go up 4 units and then do rise over run (7/3) to plot your line.
