Mei Li is going apple picking. She is choosing between two apple orchards. The cost of a basket of apples at
each orchard is shown.
Which orchard should Mei Li choose? Explain

Annie's Apple Orchard (see below)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find which orchard offers a lower price, you will have to find the orchard which offers the lower price per pound.

You can make a ratio for both orchard prices:

(see attached image IMAGE.A)

Since Annie's is cheaper by approximately $0.06, that is the orchard Mei Li should choose.

Option B

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that the region of the inequality is bounded by a line.

The first thing to do is find the equation of this line.

Note that the line intersects the x-axis at and intercepts the y-axis at

We know that the equation of a line has the following form:

Where m is the slope of the line and b is the intercept with the y axis.

So we already know that:

Then we know that when then

Thus:

Ahroa we clear m.

Then, the equation of the line is:

We can also multiply by -2 both sides of the equation and we have:

Then:

The option that contains this equation is option B.

To verify it, enter a point within the shaded region, such as the point (0,0), in the selected inequality. If the inequality is satisfied then option B is correct

The inequality is satisfied because 0 is less than 5. Then the correct option is B
