During the first 10 weeks that Wendy owned an ice cream shop, she made a profit 6 times and lost money 4 times. Her total profits, y, in any week, x, is equal to the amount of income that she earned minus the amount of money that she lost. Select as few quadrants as possible that would allow you to create a graph of Wendy’s total profits over the first 10 weeks that her business was open.

they would have to work 32 hours.

answer:

given the linear inequality :

add 2y to both sides we get;

simplify:

add 12 to both sides of an equation;

simplify:

divide both sides by 2 we get;

or

the related equation for the inequality equation [1] is;

y-intercepts defined as the graph crosses the y-axis.

substitute x =0 in [2] to solve for y;

y = 6

x-intercepts defined as the graph crosses the x-axis.

substitute value y = 0 to solve for x;

subtract 6 from both sides we get

multiply both sides by 2 we get;

or

x = -12

now, plot these point (0, 6) and (-12, 0) on graph as shown below and shade the graph below the solid line.
