Which of the following is a solution of the inequality? -3 less than 2x+ 1 less than 5

Answers

Answer:

- 2 < x < 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

- 3 < 2x + 1 < 5 ( subtract 1 from each interval )

- 4 < 2x < 4 ( divide each interval by 2 )

- 2 < x < 2

A shopper bought shoes marked $40. The sale tax is 8%. How much did the shopper pay in all?

Answers

so she payed 40 plus 8% of tax, that is:
total = 40 + (8%)(40)
total = 40 + (0.08)(40)
total = 40 + 3.2 = 43.2
that is the total pay

Which system of linear inequalities is represented by the
graph?

Answers

Answer:

y <x+1

y>x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the graph, the system is formed by two inequalities. Let's find out the equation to each line in first place.

Notice that the upper line passes through points (-1,0) and (0,1). First, we find its slope

m=(y_(2)-y_(1)  )/(x_(2)-x_(1)  )=(1-0)/(0-(-1))=(1)/(1)=1

Then, we use the point-slope formula to find the equation

y-y_(1) =m(x-x_(1) )\ny-0=1(x-(-1)\ny=x+1

Now, the dashed line indiactes that the inequalities must have sings < or >.

Notice that point (0,0) is part of its solution, that means the inequality is

y <x+1

We do the same process to find the other inequality.

The line passes through points (0,-2) and (2,0).

m=(y_(2)-y_(1)  )/(x_(2)-x_(1)  )=(0-(-2))/(2-0)=(2)/(2)=1

Then,

y-y_(1) =m(x-x_(1) )\ny-0=1(x-2)\ny=x-2

Notice that point (0,0) is part of its solution, so the inequality is

y>x-2

Therefore, the system of inequalities is

y <x+1

y>x-2

Answer:

y<x+1      y>x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

upper line: (0,1) (-1,0)

y=x+1

Lower line: (0,-2) (2,0)

y=x-2

I did not see any solid boundry on the line
