Question

Kevin is four years older than his sister, June. The sum of their ages is 14. How old is Kevin?

Answers

GPT-4o mini
Let Kevin's age be \( K \) and June's age be \( J \). According to the problem, we have the following two equations:

1. \( K = J + 4 \) (Kevin is four years older than June)
2. \( K + J = 14 \) (The sum of their ages is 14)

Now we can substitute the expression for \( K \) from the first equation into the second equation:

\[
(J + 4) + J = 14
\]

This simplifies to:

\[
2J + 4 = 14
\]

Next, subtract 4 from both sides:

\[
2J = 10
\]

Now, divide both sides by 2:

\[
J = 5
\]

Now that we know June's age, we can find Kevin's age using the first equation:

\[
K = J + 4 = 5 + 4 = 9
\]

Thus, Kevin is \( \boxed{9} \) years old.

Is (0,0)
a viable solution for the following system? Write either 1 for viable or 2 for nonviable as your response.

2y≥−3x−2


2y<−x+2
GPT-4o mini
To determine if \( (0, 0) \) is a viable solution for the system of inequalities, we need to substitute \( x = 0 \) and \( y = 0 \) into both inequalities.

1. **For the first inequality**:
\[
2y \geq -3x - 2
\]
Substituting \( x = 0 \) and \( y = 0 \):
\[
2(0) \geq -3(0) - 2 \implies 0 \geq -2
\]
This statement is true.

2. **For the second inequality**:
\[
2y < -x + 2
\]
Substituting \( x = 0 \) and \( y = 0 \):
\[
2(0) < -0 + 2 \implies 0 < 2
\]
This statement is also true.

Since both inequalities are satisfied by the point \( (0, 0) \), it is a viable solution.

Thus, the answer is \( \boxed{1} \) for viable.

A vendor sells fruit at a farmer’s market. In one day, they sold a total of 175 oranges and pears. They sold oranges for $1.50 each and pears for $2 each, making a total of $305 dollars. If x represents the number of oranges sold and y represents the number of pears sold, is (90,85)
a viable solution to the system? Write either 1 for viable or 2 for nonviable as your response.
GPT-4o mini
To determine if \( (90, 85) \) is a viable solution for the given system, we can substitute \( x = 90 \) (the number of oranges) and \( y = 85 \) (the number of pears) into the equations based on the information provided:

1. **Total number of fruits (oranges + pears)**:
\[
x + y = 175
\]

2. **Total sales from oranges and pears**:
\[
1.50x + 2y = 305
\]

Now, let's substitute \( x = 90 \) and \( y = 85 \) into the first equation:

\[
90 + 85 = 175
\]
\[
175 = 175 \quad \text{(True)}
\]

Now, let's substitute \( x = 90 \) and \( y = 85 \) into the second equation:

\[
1.50(90) + 2(85) = 305
\]
Calculating each term:
\[
135 + 170 = 305
\]
\[
305 = 305 \quad \text{(True)}
\]

Both equations are satisfied by the point \( (90, 85) \).

Thus, \( (90, 85) \) is a viable solution.

The answer is \( \boxed{1} \) for viable.

Amy needs to purchase pencils and notebooks for her students. The number of pencils needed is at least twice as many as the number of notebooks. The pencils cost $0.25 each and the notebooks cost $4. Amy’s budget for these supplies allows for a maximum cost of $100. How do you represent the constraints of this scenario as a system of inequalities, where p is the number of pencils and n is the number of notebooks Amy will buy?(1 point)
Responses

p≥n+2

0.25p+4n≤100

p greater-than-or-equal-to n plus 2 0.25 p plus 4 n less-than-or-equal-to 100

p≥2n

0.25p+4n≤100

p greater-than-or-equal-to 2 n 0.25 p plus 4 n less-than-or-equal-to 100

p<2n

0.25p+4n≤100

p less than 2 n 0.25 p plus 4 n less-than-or-equal-to 100

p≥2n

0.25p+4n≥100
GPT-4o mini
To represent the constraints of Amy's scenario as a system of inequalities where \( p \) is the number of pencils and \( n \) is the number of notebooks, we need to examine the two conditions described:

1. **The number of pencils needed is at least twice as many as the number of notebooks.** This can be represented by the inequality:
\[
p \geq 2n
\]

2. **The total cost of the pencils and notebooks should not exceed her budget of $100.** The cost of pencils is $0.25 each and notebooks is $4 each. This gives the inequality:
\[
0.25p + 4n \leq 100
\]

Now we can combine these two inequalities into a system of inequalities:

\[
\begin{cases}
p \geq 2n \\
0.25p + 4n \leq 100
\end{cases}
\]

From the choices given, the correct representation of the constraints is:

**Option**:
**p ≥ 2n**
**0.25p + 4n ≤ 100**

Thus, the answer is:
**p greater-than-or-equal-to 2 n**
**0.25 p plus 4 n less-than-or-equal-to 100**
So the selection corresponds to the second option you provided.

Adam has at least $25 in his wallet and no more than $375 in his savings. How can Adam represent this scenario as a system of linear inequalities, where w is the amount of money in his wallet and s is the amount of money in his savings?(1 point)
Responses

w≥25

s≤375

w greater-than-or-equal-to 25 s less-than-or-eqaul-to 375

w≥25

s>375

w greater-than-or-equal-to 25 s greater than 375

w>25

s≤375

w greater than 25 s less-than-or-eqaul-to 375

w≥25

s<375

w greater-than-or-equal-to 25 s less than 375
GPT-4o mini
To represent Adam's financial situation as a system of linear inequalities, we need to consider the constraints given in the problem:

1. Adam has **at least $25 in his wallet**. This means the amount in his wallet \( w \) must be greater than or equal to 25, which can be represented as:
\[
w \geq 25
\]

2. Adam has **no more than $375 in his savings**. This means the amount in his savings \( s \) must be less than or equal to 375, which can be represented as:
\[
s \leq 375
\]

Putting these two inequalities together, we have the system:

\[
\begin{cases}
w \geq 25 \\
s \leq 375
\end{cases}
\]

From the options provided, the correct representation is:

**Option**:
**w ≥ 25**
**s ≤ 375**

This corresponds to the response:
**w greater-than-or-equal-to 25 s less-than-or-equal-to 375**.

Thus, the final answer is:
**w greater-than-or-equal-to 25 s less-than-or-equal-to 375**.

Is (0,−3)

left parenthesis 0 comma negative 3 right parenthesis is a nonviable solution since it makes both inequalities true.

(0,−3)
is a nonviable solution since it does not make both inequalities true.
GPT-4o mini
To determine if \( (0, -3) \) is a viable solution for the given system of inequalities, we will substitute \( x = 0 \) and \( y = -3 \) into both inequalities:

1. **First inequality**:
\[
y < -5x + 2
\]
Substituting \( x = 0 \) and \( y = -3 \):
\[
-3 < -5(0) + 2
\]
This simplifies to:
\[
-3 < 2 \quad \text{(True)}
\]

2. **Second inequality**:
\[
3y > 3x - 6
\]
Substituting \( x = 0 \) and \( y = -3 \):
\[
3(-3) > 3(0) - 6
\]
This simplifies to:
\[
-9 > -6 \quad \text{(False)}
\]

Now, since the first inequality is true and the second inequality is false, \( (0, -3) \) does not satisfy both inequalities.

Thus, the conclusion is:
**(0,−3) is a nonviable solution since it does not make both inequalities true.**

The correct response is:
**(0,−3) is a nonviable solution since it does not make both inequalities true.**
