4 pencils and 3 crayons are 20.9 inches. 5 pencils and 4 crayons are 26.5 inches. Each pencil is the same length as the other pencils, and each crayon is the same length as the other crayons. What is the length of 1 pencil? What is the length of 1 crayon?

The length of the pencils is 4.1 inches and for the crayons 1.5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve by means of a 2x2 system of equations, we have to:

let "x" be the length of the pencils

let "y" be the length of the crayons

4 * x + 3 * y = 20.9

5 * x + 4 * y = 26.5 => x = (26.5 - 4 * y) / 5

Replacing:

4 * (26.5 - 4 * y) / 5 + 3 * y = 20.9

21.2 - 3.2 * y + 3 * y = 20.9

-0.2 * y = 20.9 - 21.2

y = -0.3 / -0.2

y = 1.5

now for x:

x = (26.5 - 4 * 1.5) / 5

x = 4.1

This means that the length of the pencils is 4.1 inches and for the crayons 1.5 inches

i think it is

step-by-step explanation:

the system of inequity is

step-by-step explanation:

from the given graph it is noticed that we have two related lines. one is solid and another is dashed.

if a line passing through two points, then the equation of line is

the solid line passing through the points (0,4) and (4,0).

the related equation of solid line is .

similarly, find the related equation of dashed line. the dashed liune passing through the points (0,0) and (3,1).

the related equation of dashed line is

from the given graph it is noticed that the point (0,1) lies on the shaded region, therefore the point (0,1) must be satisfied by the related equations.

check the related equations by the point (0,1).

this statement is true if the sign of inequality is < instead of equality. since it is an solid line therefore the sign of inequality will be . the required inequality is

similarly, check the second related equation.

it is a dashed line, so this statement is true if the sign of inequality is > . the required inequality is
