Jim has ten more dollars than gail. together they have at most twenty-seven dollars. a. determine the possible amounts of money gail could have. b. sketch the solution on a number line.

Gail could have from 0 to 8.5 and Jim could have 10 to 18.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Gail = G

Jim = G + 10

J + G <= 27 ∴

G+10+G <=27

2G + 10 <= 27

2G <= 27 - 10

2G <= 17

G <= 17/2

G <= 8.5

As it is money, let's not say that they have negative money.

So, Gail has from 0 to 8.5. As Jim has 10 more than Gail, he has from 10 to 18.5. At the most : 8.5 + 18.5 = 27.

y=mx+

d

step-by-step explanation:

given

y + 3 = - 4(x - 2) ← distribute the parenthesis

y + 3 = - 4x + 8 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

y = - 4x + 5 → d
