<h3>
Answer: Choice B</h3>
=============================================
Explanation:
If you graphed the equation 2x-5y = 14, you'll find it has a positive slope. It turns out the slope in this equation is 2/5, which is positive. A positive slope means the line goes uphill as you move from left to right. This means we can rule out choice because of this (since we want the line to slope downward).
Now let's turn to choice D. If we multiply both sides of the first inequality by -1, then we go from
to
. Note the inequality sign flips. This always happens when we multiply both sides by any negative number. The inequality
implies that the shaded region will be above the boundary line, but this contradicts the drawing which shows the shaded region is below the diagonal boundary line. We can rule out choice D because of this. Choice A can be ruled out for similar reasoning.
You should find that only choice B is left. The diagonal line is 2x+5y = 14, and we shade below this boundary line, as well as shading to the right of the y axis (to indicate all values have positive x coordinates). Values on the boundary count as solution points as well.
The answer is D. Since you owe money to Miguel, and Gloria, you are in dept to them, and you owe them a total of $11.50 because you owe Miguel 4 dollars and you owe Gloria $7.50 that adds up to $11.50 in dept
Answer:
7 cookies
Step-by-step explanation:
We have 3 brothers
First , Second, Third
Let the total number cookies be represented by A
1 cookie = 1
Working backwards, we start from the third brother
If we work backwards
It means he gave everything away
We start from the youngest
He was given 1/2 of what was left and 1/2 a cookie
This means,
1/2 + 1/2 = 1
The second brother
He got half of what is left and 1/2 a cookies
Half of what is left from brother
= What the youngest brother got + 1/2 + 1/2 a cookie
= 1 + 1/2 + 1/2
= 1.5 + 1/2
= 2 cookies
For the first brother
He got 1/2 of the cookies + 1/2 cookie
= 1.5 × 2 + 1/2 + 1/2 cookies
= 3 1/2 + 1/2
= 4 cookies
The first brother got 4 cookies
The second brother got 2 cookies
The third broth got 1 cookies
