Given the system of inequalities below: -3x - y < 12 2x + 3y ≥ 9 Give the coordinates of three points that are members of the

earnstyle [38]

Answer:

The coordinates of the points that are members of the solution set

(-3,7), (0,4) and (2,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$-3x-y< 12$ ----> inequality A

The solution of the inequality A is the shaded area above the dashed line

$2x+3y\geq 9$ ----> inequality B

The solution of the inequality B is the shaded area above the solid line

The solution of the system of inequalities is the shaded area between the dashed line and the solid line

see the attached figure

Remember that,

If a ordered pair is a solution of the system of inequalities, then the ordered pair must be in the shaded area of the solution

Plot the points

(-3, 7), (-3, -7), (3,-7), (-4,-0), (0,-4), (0,4), (2,3), (-2,3), (2,-3)

therefore

The coordinates of the points that are members of the solution set

(-3,7), (0,4) and (2,3)

Solve for |2x + 4|-1=7

Rudik [331]

Answer:

x = - 6 or x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The absolute value function always returns a positive value. However, the expression inside can be positive or negative.

Given

| 2x + 4 | - 1 = 7 ( add 1 to both sides )

| 2x + 4 | = 8, thus

2x + 4 = 8 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

2x = 4 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 2

-(2x + 4) = 8

- 2x - 4 = 8 ( add 4 to both sides )

- 2x = 12 ( divide both sides by - 2 )

x = - 6

As a check

Substitute these values into the left side of the equation and if equal to the right side then they are the solutions.

x = 2 → | 4 + 4 | - 1 = | 8 | - 1 = 8 - 1 = 7 ← True

x = - 6 → | - 12 + 4 | - 1 = | - 8 | - 1 = 8 - 1 = 7 ← True

Hence the solutions are x = - 6 or x = 2

In 1980, the number of high school dropouts in a country was 5217 thousand. By 2008, this number had decreased to 3120 thousand.

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

74893 students per year

Step-by-step explanation:

The Average rate of change is calculated as

= Difference in number of students / Difference in years

= 3120 thousand - 5217 thousands/ 2008 - 1980

= (3120000 - 5217000)/(2008 - 1980)

= -2097000/28

= -74892.857143 per year

Therefore, the average rate of change

per year in the number of high school dropouts is approximately 74893 students per year
