Answer:
6. The number is
7. The two numbers are and
Step-by-step explanation:
Question six can be re-worded to create the following expression:
Solve for x to find the number:
Question seven can be solved by first listing the constraints (assuming x is smaller than y):
- x and y are less than 20
To get the numbers, we can create a system of linear equations. First, solve for in each expression:
Solve for :
Solve for :
Answer: 2x + y < 7
Step-by-step explanation:
In the graph we can see that:
The line is a dashed line, and the shaded area is below the dashed line, then we will have something like:
y < a*x + b
We also can see that the slope of the line is negative, and that the y-intercept is +7
Then the inequality will be something like:
y < a*x + 7
Now we can see that the line passes through the points (0, 7) and (3, 1)
Then the slope will be:
a = (1 - 7)/(3 - 0) = -6/3 = -2
that is negative, as we already said.
Then we have:
y < -2*x + 7
we can rewrite this as:
2x + y < 7
This is the first solution shown.
