Michelle has $8 and wants to buy a combination of dog food to feed at least two dogs at the animal shelter. A serving of dry foo

d costs $1, and a serving of wet food costs $3. This system of inequalities models the scenario: x + 3y ≤ 8 x + y ≥ 2 Part A: Describe the graph of the system of inequalities, including shading and the types of lines graphed. Provide a description of the solution set. (4 points) Part B: Is the point (8, 2) included in the solution area for the system? Justify your answer mathematically. (3 points) Part C: Choose a point in the solution set and interpret what it means in terms of the real-world context.

Answer:

PART A: Inequality (a)

Solve for y

The graph of y ≥ ⅓(8-x) is represented by the upper red line and all points in the shaded area below it. The line is solid because points on the line satisfy the conditions.

 Inequality (b)

Solve for y

The graph of y ≥ 2 - x is represented by the lower blue line and all points in the shaded area above it. The line is solid because points on the line satisfy the conditions. The solution lies in the purple area. It consists of all combinations of x and y that make y ≥ ⅓(8 - x) and y ≥ 2 - x. A practical but not a mathematical condition is that all values of x and y must be zero or positive numbers (for example, you can't have -2 servings of food), so I have plotted only the numbers in the first quadrant.

PART B: If a point is a solution of the system, then the point must satisfy both inequalities of the system.

For x=8, y=2. Verify inequality A  is not true. So the point does not satisfy inequality A. Therefore, the point is not included in the solution area for the system.

PART C: I choose the point (3,1) which is included in the solution area for the system.

That means Michelle buys 3 serves of dry food and 1 serving of wet food.

The cost to rent a car at one agency is $24.50 per day plus an additional $15.99 fee for insurance. At a different agency, the c
Lena [83]

Answer:

d=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Agency 1:

Total cost of renting a car=24.50d + 15.99

Agency 2:

Total cost of renting a car=27.50d + 3.99

Where, d=No. of days of renting the car

Which equation could be used to find the number of days, d, at which the rental fee is the same for both agencies?

The equation is by equating agency 1 and agency 2 equation

24.50d + 15.99 = 27.50d + 3.99

Collect like terms

24.50d - 27.50d = 3.99 - 15.99

-3d = -12

Divide both sides by -3

d= -12 / -3

=4

d=4

Check

Agency 1:

24.50d + 15.99

= 24.50(4) + 15.99

= 98 + 15.99

= 113.99

Agency 2:

27.50d + 3.99

= 27.50(4) + 3.99

= 110 + 3.99

= 133.99

Can someone please help me

Slope = (10 - 5)/(-9 + 15) = 5/6

y = mx + b where m = slope and b = y-intercept

b = y - mx

b = 5 - (5/6) (-15)

b = 5 +12.5

b = 17.5

Equation y = 5/6 x + 17.5

Y-intercept = 17.5

X-intercept when y = 0

So

5/6 x + 17.5 = 0

5/6 x = -17.5

x = (-17.5) (6/5)

x = -21

Answer

Y intercept (0, 17.5 )

X intercept (-21 , 0)
