A college is currently accepting students that are both in-state and out-of-state. They plan to accept three times as many in-states students as out-of-state, and they only have space to accept 100 out-of-state students. Let x= the number of out=of=state students and y= the number in-state students. Write the constrains to represent the incoming students at the college.

0 < x ≤ 100 and 0 < y ≤ 300

Step-by-step explanation:

THIS IS THE COMPLETE QUESTION BELOW;

college is currently accepting students that are both in-state and out-of-state. They plan to accept three times as many in-state students as out-of-state, and they only have space to accept 100 out-of-state students. Let x = the number of out-of-state students and y = the number in-state students. Write the constraints to represent the incoming students at the college.

0 < x ≤ 100 and 0 < y ≤ 300

x > 0 and y > 0

0 < x ≤ 100 and y > 300

0 < x and y < 100

SOLUTION

they only have space to accept 100 out-of-state students,which means that the Maximum number of out-of-state students that can be accepted is 100

Then x= 100(Maximum number of out-of-state students that can be accepted)

They plan to accept three times as many in-state students as out-of-state which means that

Y = 3x(Maximum number of in-state students)

Then we can deduced that the numbee out-of-state students that can be accepted can lyes between the range of 0 and 100 which means from interval 0 to 100

Which can be written as 0 < x ≤ 100

But we need to know the interval for the Maximum number of in-state students(Y), to do that we need to multiply the equation above by 3 since Y = 3x

0 < x ≤ 100

3× 0 = 0

3× X = X

3× 100= 300

Then 0 < 3x≤ 300

But we know that Y = 3x then substitute into last equation

We have

0 < y ≤ 300

ThenBthe constraints to represent the incoming students at the college is

0 < x ≤ 100 and 0 < y ≤ 300

step-by-step explanation:

b: |12 – x| ≤ 0.25

step-by-step explanation:      

let x be the possible lengths in inches, of the ribbons jaime cut.

we have been given that jaime is cutting strips of ribbon for a project. he tries to cut each piece to be 12 inches long, but sometimes he cuts it too long or too short by as much as 0.25 inch.  

we can represent this information in an inequality as:

by the definition of absolute value function we will get,

upon combining our inequalities we will get,

therefore, the inequality   describes all the possible lengths (x), in inches, of the ribbons jaime cut.
