Darcie wants to crochet a minimum of 3 blankets to donate to a homeless shelter. Darcie crochets at a rate of 1/15 blanket per d

ay. She has 60 days until when she wants to donate the blankets, but she also wants to skip crocheting some days so she can volunteer in other ways.
Write an inequality to determine the number of days, s, Darcie can skip crocheting and still meet her goal.

Answer:

Since Darcie wants to crochet a minimum of 3 blankets and she crochets at a rate of 1/5 blanket per day, we can determine how many days she will need to crochet a minimum of 3 blankets following the next steps:

- Finding the number of days needed to crochet one (1) blanket:

\begin{gathered}1=\frac{1}{5}Crochet(Day)\\Crochet(Day)=5*1=5\end{gathered}

1=

5

1

Crochet(Day)

Crochet(Day)=5∗1=5

So, she can crochet 1 blanket every 5 days.

- Finding the number of days needed to crochet three (3) blankets:

If she needs 5 days to crochet 1 blanket, to crochet 3 blankets she will need 15 days because:

\begin{gathered}DaysNeeded=\frac{NumberOfBlankets}{Rate}\\\\DaysNeeded=\frac{3}{\frac{1}{5}}=3*5=15\end{gathered}

DaysNeeded=

Rate

NumberOfBlankets

DaysNeeded=

5

1

3

=3∗5=15

- Writing the inequality

If she has 60 days to crochet a minimum of 3 blankets but she can complete it in 15 days, she can skip crocheting 45 days because:

AvailableDays=60-RequiredDaysAvailableDays=60−RequiredDays

AvailableDays=60-15=45DaysAvailableDays=60−15=45Days

So, the inequality will be:

s\leq 45s≤45

The inequality means that she can skip crocheting a maximum of 45 days since she needs 15 days to crochet a minimum of 3 blankets.

Have a nice day!

Write an equation for each translation of Y=|x|.
Digiron [165]

\boxed{y=\mid x \mid +14}

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Let's graph the equation:

y=\mid x \mid

Which is the red graph shown below. As you can see this is the pattern of the Absolute Value Function. In order to translate this graph 14 units up, let's add 14 to \mid x \mid. In doing so we get the new function:

y=\mid x \mid + 14

So we get a new graph which is the blue one. In order to prove that this is the correct translation, let's take the vertex of the red graph which is the origin. To translate this graph 14 units up implies that each point is shifted 14 units up, so for the vertex of the red graph:

Vertex \ of \ the \ red \ graph: \\ \\ V(0,0) \\ \\ \\ Vertex \ of \ the \ new \ graph: \\ \\ (0,0+14) \\ \\ (0,14)

So the new vertex matches the vertex of the blue graph. Finally, the equation for the translation of y=\mid x \mid 14 units up is y=\mid x \mid +14
