The open circle means the inequality will be greater than or equal to (≥) or less than or equal to (≤).
A closed circle means the inequality will be greater than (>) or less than (<)
An arrow pointing right to increasingly positive values means the inequality is getting greater (> or ≥)
A narrowing pointing left to increasingly negative values means the inequality is getting lesser (< or ≤)
So for this graph with an open circle and rightward pointing arrow, “x” will be some number on the number line greater than the first point of -38:
x > -38
The graph shows a slope 7/10, which is 0.7. Only 8/11 (=0.72727) is greater than 0.7, so the answer is y=(8/11)x
Amount charged for downloading individual songs = x dollars
Amount charged for downloading an entire album = y dollars
In respect to person A:
6x + 2y = 25.92
3x + y = 12.96
y = 12.96 - 3x
In respect to person B:
4x + 3y = 33.93
Putting the value of y from the first equation in the second, we get
4x + 3(12.96 - 3x) = 33.93
4x + 38.88 - 9x = 33.93
- 5x = - 4.95
x = 0.99 dollars
Putting the value of x in the first equation, we get
y = 12.96 - 3x
= 12.96 - 2.97
= 9.99 dollars
A ton is equivalent to 1000 pounds so:
the elephant weighs 5000 pounds
5000-570= 4430
The elephants weighs 4430 pounds more.
