Question

Enquire plans a diet for his dog, river. River Consumes between 510 and 540 calories per day. If river eats 1.5 servings of dog food each day, how many treats can she have?

hintHint:

If two real numbers or algebraic expressions are related by the symbols “>”, “<”, “≥”, “≤”, then the relation is called an inequality. For example, x>5 (x should be greater than 5).
If the symbol is (≥ or ≤) then you fill in the dot and if the symbol is (> or <) then you do not fill in the dot.

The correct answer is: River can have 2 to 4 treats per day.


    Given that 1 serving has 320 calories and 1 treat has 15 calories
    It is given that River is given 1.5 servings in a day
    Calories in 1.5 serving = 1.5 × 320 = 480 calories
    Let x represent the number of treats Louie can have each day.
    So, Total calories taken by River = 15x + 480
    It is given that River can consume between 510 and 540 calories per day
    So, 510 ≤ 15x + 480 ≤ 540
    Solving the inequality

     510 ≤ 15x + 480 ≤ 540
    Subtracting 480 on all sides

     510 - 480 ≤ 15x ≤ 540 - 480

     30 ≤ 15x ≤ 60
    Dividing 15 on all sides

     2 ≤ x ≤ 4
    Final Answer:
    Hence, River can have 2 to 4 treats per day.

    Solve each compound inequality and graph the solution.
    2x+5 > -3 and 4x+7 < 15

    When two inequality statements are joined by the words "or" or "and," the sentence is said to be compound inequality. The preposition "and" denotes that both statements in the compound sentence are true simultaneously. It is where the solution sets for the several statements to cross or overlap. The conjunction "or" indicates that the whole compound statement is true.
    Example
    Solve for x: 3 x + 2 < 14 and 2 x – 5 > –11
    Here we have to solve each inequality individually. Because the joining word is "and," the overlap or intersection is the desired outcome.
    3x+2<14 and 2x-5>-11
    3x<12 2x>-6
    x<4 x>-3
    Numbers to the left of 4 are represented by x < 4, and the right of -3 is represented by x > -3. The solution set consists of {x| x > –3 and x < 4}

    Solve the compound inequality -3x + 2 > -7 or 2(x - 2) ≥ 6. Graph the solution:

    The combination of two inequalities using "and" or "or" results in a compound inequality. Each inequality in a compound inequality can be solved using the same steps as a normal inequality, but when combining the solutions, it makes a difference whether "and" or "or" is used to join the two inequality solutions together.
    ¶For instance, 1 < x < 3 is equivalent to "x > 1 andx < 3". The use of "or" is always used to specifically refer to a compound inequality, on the other hand.
    ¶x > 1: Since there is no "=" at 1, we receive an open dot. Additionally, since 1 has ">," we draw an arrow to the right of it.

    Solve the compound inequality 5x+7 < 13 or -4x+3 > 11. Graph the solution.

    A Compound inequality is a connection between two inequality statements by the words "or" or "and." The conjunction "and" denotes the simultaneous truth of both statements in a compound sentence. It is the point where the solution sets for the various statements cross over or intersect. The conjunction "or" denotes that the entire compound sentence is true as long as either of the two statements is true — the union or combination of the solution sets for each particular statement.
    Let's see x: 2 x + 7 < –11 or –3 x – 2 < 13. Solve each inequality on its own. Combine the solutions, i.e., determine the union of the solution sets for each inequality phrase since the connecting word is "or." Both x < –9 and x > -5 denote all the numbers on the left of those two particular values. Written as follows is the solution set:
    { x| x < -9 or x > -5}
