Answer: 150 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Let her initial weight be represented by x.
Since Shep had lost 16% of his weight, which was 24 pounds. Shep weight before he was put on a diet would be:
16% × x = 24
0.16 × x = 24
0.16x = 24
x = 24/0.16
x = 150 pounds
Substitute x-values into x.
e.g. y>-3.5x + 2
let x be 1...
thus, y>-3.5(1) + 2
y> -1.5 or y<1.5
another e.g. let x be 2.
y> -3.5(2) + 2
y> -4.4 or y<4.4
And so forth. pluck in these coordinates into you graph and sketch a line through the points.
NOTE: < in my explanation is equivalent to less than or equal to. same goes to >… greater than or equal to.
I hope you followed through. Good luck!
