Solve inequality using a graphing utility. Graph side separately. Then determine the values of \(x\) for which the graph for the left side lies above the graph for the right side. \(-2(x+4)>6 x+16\)
Use the strategy for solving word problems, modeling the verbal conditions of the problem with a linear inequality. A company manufactures and sells blank audiocassette tapes. The weekly fixed cost is \(\$ 10,000\) and it costs \(\$ 0.40\) to produce each tape. The selling price is \(\$ 2.00\) per tape. How many tapes must be produced and sold each week for the company to generate a profit?
The toll to a bridge is \(\$ 3.00 .\) A three-month pass costs \(\$ 7.50\) and reduces the toll to \(\$ 0.50 .\) A six-month pass costs \(\$ 30\) and permits crossing the bridge for no additional fee. How many crossings per three-month period does it take for the threemonth pass to be the best deal?
The formula $$1-\frac{1}{4^{x}+26}$$ models the percentage of U.S. households with an interfaith marriage, \(I, x\) years after \(1988 .\) The formula $$N-\frac{1}{4} x+6$$ models the percentage of U.S households in which a person of faith is married to someone with no religion, \(N, x\) years after \(\overline{l 9} 88\). Use these models to solve. a. In which years will more than \(34 \%\) of U.S. households. have an interfaith marriage? b. In which years will more than \(15 \%\) of U.S. households have a person of faith married to someone with no religion? c. Based on your answers to parts (a) and (b), in which years will more than \(34 \%\) of households have an interfaith marriage and more than \(15 \%\) have a faith/no religion marriage? d. Based on your answers to parts (a) and (b), in which years will more than \(34 \%\) of households have an interfaith marriage or more than \(15 \%\) have a faith/no religion marriage?
Each group member should research one situation that provides two different pricing options. These can involve areas such as public transportation options (with or without discount passes), cellphone plans, long-distance telephone plans, or anything of interest. Be sure to bring in all the details for each option. At a second group meeting, select the two pricing situations that are most interesting and relevant. Using each situation, write a word problem about selecting the better of the two options. The word problem should be one that can be solved using a linear inequality. The group should turn in the two problems and their solutions.
