2. Tyler is also in Ms. Smith's algebra class. He wants to win a T-shirt, a backpack, and a sports ball. Part A Write and graph a compound inequality that represents the amount of money Tyler needs to collect to win the prize of a T-shirt, backpack, and sports ball.​

Respuesta :

A compound inequalities are two inequalities, that are joined together in a

sentence by the coordinating conjunctions, 'and' or 'or'

  • The compound inequality is; x ≥ 125 and x < 250
  • The graph of the inequality is attached.

Reasons:

From the table in the question, the amount of money that needs to be

raised to win a T-shirt, a backpack, and a sports ball is between $125 and

$249.99, we have;

The amount to be raised is larger than or equal to $125 (x ≥ 125)

The amount to be should be less than or equal to $249.99 (x ≤ 249.99)

Therefore, the amount Tyler needs to raise is less than $250 (x < 250)

(A reason for the use of 250, is so that the solution can be easily presented

on a graph).

The compound inequality that represent the amount of money Tyler needs

to collect is therefore;

x ≥ 125 and x < 250

Please find attached the graph of the compound inequality created with

MS Visio.

The shaded circle at 125 indicates that the point 125 is included in the

inequality, and x can be equal to 125. The open circle at 250 indicates 'not

equal to', therefore, x is less than (and not equal o) 250.
