Running at the same constant rate, 5 identical machines can produce one lot containing a certain number of toys per hour. At thi

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If the speed is constant for 5 machines and produces x amount of toys we know that rate is defined as a constant per time:
Here the machines are constant and the rate is x toys per hour:
If 5 machines make x per hour:
Rate is x/1 hour
The the ratio of 8/5 is 1.6. Therefore for 8 machines the rate is 1.6 times more per hour than for5 machines. Therefore we can write an expression as:
Rate for 5 machines is x and for 8 machines is y:

Answer:
We want to graph the inequality:
3x - 2y ≤ 6
The first step is to write this as a linear equation, to do it, we can isolate y in one side of the inequality.
3x ≤ 6 + 2y
3x - 6 ≤ 2y
(3/2)x - 6/2 ≤ y
(3/2)x - 3 ≤ y
or:
y ≥ (3/2)x - 3
Because we have the symbol ≥
The points on the line are solutions, then the first part is to graph the line:
y = (3/2)*x - 3
Next, we have:
y equal to or larger than (3/2)*x - 3
Then we need to shade all the region above that line.
The graph can be seen below.
