d. Solid line with shading on the side that includes the origin.
3. Jimmy's doctor has put him on a diet of 900 calories per meal. This means he can consume no more than 900 calories at any meal. His options for lunch in the restaurant are as follows:
? Soups that have140 calories per serving
? Mini Burgers that have 100 calories per serving
Which inequality below can be used to find the possible combinations of servings of soup(s) and mini burgers(b) he can eat and stay within his goal of no more than 900 calories?
a. 140s + 100b ?900
b. 140s + 100b?900
c. 140s - 100b?900
d. 140s - 100b ?900
4. Part 1: Solve the inequality 12 + x? 2x - 2 and show all of your work. You can use <= to represent the less than or equal to symbol.
Part 2: Use complete sentences to describe the graph of the solution from Part 1.
5. Part 1: Solve the compound inequality 7x - 4 > 31 and 7x - 4 ? 59 and show all of your work. You can use <= to represent the less than or equal to symbol.
Part 2: Use complete sentences to describe the graph of the solution from Part 1.
6. Part 1: Use complete sentences to describe a real-world scenario that could be represented by the inequality 5x + 2y?45.
Part 2: Choose one ordered pair that is a solution to the given inequality and explain what that ordered pair means in the context of your real-world scenario.

Problem #1
Answer: C, D
We have and . For the compound inequalities, the final solution is . So it is a number line with closed circle on 16, shaded to the right.
Problem #2
Answer: D
The inequality is . It uses sign and thus it has a solid line. We check the origin and is true. So the solution region contains the origin.
