To fit in an existing frame, the length, x, of a piece of glass must be longer than 12 cm but not longer than 12.2 cm. Which inequality can be used to represent the lengths of the glass that will fit in the frame?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

12 < x ≤ 12.2 12 > x ≤ 12.2 x > 12 or x ≤ 12.2 x < 12 or x ≤ 12.2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks i have 2 more questions can u help me with them

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sure

Ori needed at least $1.47 in postage to mail an envelope to his cousin overseas. If x represents the number of $0.44 cent stamps he has and y represents the number of $0.10 cent stamps he has, the inequality representing the number of stamps he can use to mail the envelope is 0.44x + 0.10y ≥ 1.47. If Ori uses all 3 of the $0.44 cent stamps he has, what is the minimum number of $0.10 stamps he needs to use?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

plug in 3 for x and then solve for y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1.5 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yep. so what is the minimum

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait isnt that the answer just 1.5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i don't think you can have 0.5 of a stamp, so i would just round up to 2 stamps

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah but it doesn't say to round

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but thanks my last question is

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Which description of the graph of the linear equality y > 3x – 8 is correct? A. The graph will be a dashed line with a y-intercept of negative eight and a slope of three. The graph will be shaded below the line. B. The graph will be a solid line with a y-intercept of three and a slope of negative eight. The graph will be shaded above the line. C. The graph will be a solid line with a y-intercept of three and a slope of negative eight. The graph will be shaded below the line. D. The graph will be a dashed line with a y-intercept of negative eight and a slope of three. The graph will be shaded above the line.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

B

OpenStudy (anonymous):

?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y = mx + b

OpenStudy (anonymous):

m is the slope, b is the y-int

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then its C

OpenStudy (anonymous):

looking at the equation y > 3x – 8, what is the slope?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok and what is the y-int

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that's right, and is the graph shaded above or below the line?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

above

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but at the same time isn't it a solid line ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No it's a dashed line because > means it's greater than but not equal to the line

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[ \ge\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OOOH OMG SORRY I WAS SLOW ... I REMEMBER THIS NOW thanks a lot the answer is D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

would have a solid line

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That's right, good job

OpenStudy (anonymous):

THANK YOU A LOT SIR :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no problem
