Step-by-step explanation:

You can set up a proportion.

Let x be the number of pencils needed.

\frac{100}{90} = \frac{x}{8500}

Solve for x.

x = 9444.44 pencils (round it up to 9445 pencils if you need a whole number)

Use the drawing tool(s) to form the correct answer on the provided graph.
NikAS [45]

Answer:

Here's one way to do it

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Solve the inequality for y

5x - y > -3

-y > -5x - 3

y < 5x + 3

2. Plot a few points for the "y =" line

I chose

\begin{gathered}\begin{array}{rr}\mathbf{x} & \mathbf{y} \\-2 & -7 \\-1 & -2 \\0 & 3 \\1 & 8 \\2 & 13 \\\end{array}\end{gathered}

x

−2

−1

0

1

2

y

−7

−2

3

8

13

You should get a graph like Fig 1.

3. Draw a straight line through the points

Make it a dashed line because the inequality is "<", to show that points on the line do not satisfy the inequality.

See Fig. 2.

4. Test a point to see if it satisfies the inequality

I like to use the origin,(0,0), for easy calculating.

y < 5x + 3

0 < 0 + 3

0 < 3. TRUE.

The condition is TRUE.

Shade the side of the line that contains the point (the bottom side).

And you're done (See Fig. 3).
