Answer: Only j = 2

============================================

Explanation:

Let's solve for j

\frac{96}{j} \ge 40\\\\96 \ge 40j\\\\\frac{96}{40} \ge j\\\\2.4 \ge j\\\\j \le 2.4

In the second step, I multiplied both sides by j. If j is a positive number, then the inequality sign will not flip. All of the answer choices are positive numbers, so we don't have to worry about the inequality sign flipping.

The last step shows that j = 2.4 or j < 2.4

So j is 2.4 or smaller.

Of the list given to us, only j = 2 fits the description, since something like j = 8 is not 2.4 or smaller.

---------------------------

If j = 2, then,

\frac{96}{j} \ge 40\\\\\frac{96}{2} \ge 40\\\\48 \ge 40\\\\

which is a true statement since 48 is larger than 40. This shows that j = 2 is a solution.

Something like j = 8 does not work because

\frac{96}{j} \ge 40\\\\\frac{96}{8} \ge 40\\\\12 \ge 40\\\\

which is false because 12 is not equal to 40 or larger than 40. This means j = 8 is not a solution. You should find that j = 12 and j = 3 lead to similar false statements.

Of the list given, j = 2 is the only solution.

<h2><u>Answer:</u></h2><h2><u></u>\boxed{\boxed{\sf{j=2}}}<u></u></h2><h2><u></u></h2><h2><u>Solution Steps:</u></h2>

______________________________

<h3>1.) Solve using j = 12:</h3>
  • Plug in 12: \frac{96}{12} ≥ 40
  • Divide 96 by 12: =8
  • Compare: 8 ≥ 40

So this is False.

<h3>2.) Solve using j = 8:</h3>
  • Plug in 8: \frac{96}{8} ≥ 40
  • Divide 96 by 8: =12
  • Compare: 12 ≥ 40

So this is False.

<h3>3.) Solve using j = 2:</h3>
  • Plug in 2: \frac{96}{2} ≥ 40
  • Divide 96 by 2: =48
  • Compare: 48 ≥ 40

So this is True.

<h3>4.) Solve using j = 3:</h3>
  • Plug in 3: \frac{96}{3} ≥ 40
  • Divide 96 by 3: =32
  • Compare: 32 ≥ 40

So this is False.

Find each key feature of the function shown in the graph. Write the range and domain in interval notation, and assume all values
gayaneshka [121]

The domain of the graph is  -8 while the range of the graph is -4\leq x.

  • The domain of the graph is input values of "x" for which the function exists while the range is the output values "y" for which the function exists.

For the graph, the domain will be the values of the graph along the x-axis.

  • Domain = -8 (Note that -8 is not included)

  • For the range, the interval is given as: -4\leq x. Note that the value of 4 is not included since it is opened.

There is a bag with 50 popsicles inside. 5
Allisa [31]

Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that there are ten purple popsicles. Together without the purple popsicles, there are 40 popsicles in total. Therefore there is a 10/40 chance to get purple. We need to turn this into a percentage so we do (10 / 40) x 100. This would equal to 25%, therefore, there is a 25% probability to get a purple popsicle.
