Wilmer spends at least 13 hours reading for his assignments each week, plus 1 hour completing each Reading Response assignment. The inequality that represents the total number of hours, y, Wilmer reads for his various assignments each week is y≥x+13, where x
represents the number of Reading Response assignments he completes.
This week, Wilmer can spend only 5
hours total reading for his various assignments.
Which explanation correctly analyzes whether there is a solution for this scenario?
There is no solution. For the inequality to be true, the value of x has to be negative. This is impossible because Wilmer can't have a negative number of Reading Response assignments.
The ordered pair (−8,5) is a solution to the inequality y≥x+13. This ordered pair shows that Wilmer can complete 8 Reading Responses in the 5 hours.
The ordered pair (5,18) is a solution to the inequality y≥x+13. This ordered pair shows that Wilmer can complete 18 Reading Responses in the 5 hours.
There is no solution. For the inequality to be true, the value of x has to be a fraction. This is impossible because Wilmer can't have a fractional number of Reading Response assignments.****
yeah ok karen
im guessing this is for algebra 1a checkpoint 14 ? i got 100% on it lmk idk how to give you the graph answers but go to desmos and put the equation in and it will help you. But for the world problems i can help. answers- "He makes more than $11 per hour plus $35 in tips." "6s+8c≥900" "45t+20b≤150" "There is no solution. For the inequality to be true, the value of x has to be negative. This is impossible because Wilmer can't have a negative number of Reading Response assignments. find the right question for the answer and put it in.
Hello Maybelline.
the correct answer is there is no solution because the value of x has to be a fraction. hope this helps with your math homework your cheating on by looking up the answer.
The correct explanation is: There is no solution. For the inequality to be true, the value of x has to be a fraction. This is impossible because Wilmer can't have a fractional number of Reading Response assignments.
To determine if there is a solution, we need to analyze the given inequality: y ≥ x + 13, where x represents the number of Reading Response assignments and y represents the total number of hours Wilmer reads for his various assignments each week.
In this scenario, Wilmer can only spend 5 hours total reading for his various assignments. Plugging this value into the inequality, we get: 5 ≥ x + 13.
To isolate x, we subtract 13 from both sides of the inequality: 5 - 13 ≥ x. Simplifying this, we have: -8 ≥ x.
This means that x (the number of Reading Response assignments) should be less than or equal to -8 for the inequality to be true. However, a negative number of Reading Response assignments is not possible in this context, as Wilmer cannot have a negative number of assignments.
Therefore, there is no solution to this scenario, as the value of x cannot be negative. The other options suggesting ordered pairs (−8,5) and (5,18) as solutions are incorrect, as they do not satisfy the inequality.
