Grace's favorite activities are going to the movies and skating with friends. She budgets herself no more than $75 a month for entertainment and transportation. Movie admission is $9 per movie, and skating costs $5 each time. A student bus pass for the month costs $25.

Consider the restrictions on the numbers in the scenario
Real or integers or whole

i js dont get how ik if its a real number interger or whole

#

XeR

#

YeR

cedar widget
#

well we can have decimal values for dollars

#

so integers and whole are not correct

#

it should be XER, X>= 0

lapis sleet
#

how do ik its a real number in a word problem like thus by js looking or a integer or whole

cedar widget
#

whole numbers are all integers 0 and up

#

wait I misunderstood the question

lapis sleet
#

yeah so basically i need inequalities to make

#

i have x+y >= 12

#

x+y >= 5

#

X>=2

#

i get all that stuff but when it tell me to consider the restriction on the nimbers in the scenario

#

shit doesnt make sense

cedar widget
#

essentially u have to consider the word problem and what values are possible

cedar widget
#

just the $ amounts?

lapis sleet
#

yeah

cedar widget
#

ok so dollars can be decimals right

#

like $4.50

#

so they are not only whole numbers

#

and not only integers

#

so they are real numbers

#

however they can't be negative in this scenario

#

so the numbers in this scenario exist in real numbers but are greater than 0

#

Whole numbers are non decimal non fractional numbers over and including 0, integers are non decimal non fractional numbers above, below and including 0, and real numbers are all numbers. So when we are considering dollar amounts they are real numbers over 0 (unless we are talking about debt)

#

okay thank u

#

.solved

winged graniteBOT
#
Solved

Post marked as solved by @lapis sleet.

Use .unsolved if this was a mistake.

lapis sleet
#

@cedar widget

#

they asking me the cordinates of these ion get it

cedar widget
#

send the whole question I don't get what they asking

lapis sleet
#

my byddy did that i dony get ut

#

all this makes no sense either the 0,0 is not a solution or is idk@how to find that out

cedar widget
#

just look at the shaded region and pick 3 points

lapis sleet
#

yep

#

oh

#

okay

#

wiat what

#

wtf

#

im so confused idk y

cedar widget
#

which question u confused with

lapis sleet
#

same number 2

cedar widget
#

send that one and pls not sideways lol

#

do u know what coordinates are?

lapis sleet
lapis sleet
#

connect

#

idk how to explain it

#

like

#

-2,4 perhaps there should be s dot there

cedar widget
#

coordinates are written as (x, y)

lapis sleet
#

how did i get those numbers tho

cedar widget
#

do u know the x and y axis?

lapis sleet
#

is it js any number in the shaded part

#

yeah

#

x is across y is up down

cedar widget
#

so yeah u choose an x and y that meet in the shaded part

lapis sleet
cedar widget
#

for example lets take (-2,4) which ur friend picked

lapis sleet
#

nvm go on

cedar widget
#

u look at where -2 on the horizontal axis is

#

and draw a line vertcially there

#

and u find where 4 on the y axis is

#

and drag a line horizontally there

#

the point (-2, 4) corrisponds with where those 2 points meet

#

and it is in the shaded part

cedar widget
lapis sleet
#

i js dont get the part where it asks me if 0,0 is a solution

cedar widget
#

basically

#

(0,0) is when x=0 and y=0

#

so sub in those and see if the inequality is true

#

lets take 1.a)

#

y-x>=10

#

sub in (0,0)

#

u get 0-0 >= 10

#

which isn't correct

#

so (0,0) is not a solution

lapis sleet
#

oh

#

shit

#
