Mitchell and his friends went to the candy store, where they can buy candy by the pound. Mitchell bought 1.2 pounds of candy. His friends bought 2.3 pounds and 1.8 pounds. About how many pounds of candy did they buy altogether? rounding

5.3 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

1.2 plus 1.8 is 3 pounds

then you add 3 pounds plus 2.3 lbs and you get

5.3 pounds

5.3

Step-by-step explanation:

If you add how much Mitchell bought (1.2) and how much his friends bought (2.3), (1.8) therefore the answer is 5.0 or rounded is just 5

so firstly, we need to isolate the y variables to be able to solve these inequalities. firstly, add 0.5x on both sides of the first inequality and subtract 1.5x on both sides of the second inequality:

now since the slope is positive for the first inequality, this means that the line going upwards belongs to the first inequality, and the line going downwards belongs to the second inequality.

next, since y ≥ in the first inequality, this means that the shaded region will be above the first inequality's line, thus shading regions a and b.

next, since y ≤ in the second inequality, this means that the shaded region is going to be below this line, thus shading regions a and c.

since both lines shade region a, this means that region a is the solution.
