The constraints that represent the possible number of male and female penguins that can live in a thriving population at the zoo are:
1. y = 2x (There must be exactly two times more males than females for the population to thrive)
2. x ≤ 10 (There can be a maximum of 10 female penguins)
A zookeeper is monitoring the population of penguins. The group needs to have exactly two times more males than females for the population to thrive. The zoo only has room for a maximum of 10 female penguins. Let x represent the number of female penguins and y represent the number of male penguins. Write the constraints that represent the possible number of male and female penguins that can live in a thriving population at the zoo.

A zookeeper is monitoring the population of penguins. The group needs to have exactly two times more males than females for the population to thrive. The zoo only has room for a maximum of 10 female penguins. Let x represent the number of female penguins and y represent the number of male penguins. Write the constraints that represent the possible number of male and female penguins that can live in a thriving population at the zoo.
0 < x ≤ 10 and 0 < y ≤ 20
x > 0 and y > 0
0 < x ≤ 10 and y > 20
x > 0 and y < 10
0 < x ≤ 10 and 0 < y ≤ 20
x > 0 and y > 0
0 < x ≤ 10 and y > 20
x > 0 and y < 10
The constraints that represent the possible number of male and female penguins that can live in a thriving population at the zoo are:
1. 0 < x ≤ 10 (There can be between 1 and 10 female penguins, since the zoo has room for a maximum of 10)
2. y = 2x (There must be exactly two times more males than females for the population to thrive)
3. 0 < y ≤ 20 (There can be between 1 and 20 male penguins, since the male population must be at least twice the female population)
1. 0 < x ≤ 10 (There can be between 1 and 10 female penguins, since the zoo has room for a maximum of 10)
2. y = 2x (There must be exactly two times more males than females for the population to thrive)
3. 0 < y ≤ 20 (There can be between 1 and 20 male penguins, since the male population must be at least twice the female population)
Megan purchased a new gadget for her technology hobby. She plans to sell it sometime in the future; however, its value depreciates monthly. The expression shows the depreciated sales value of the gadget:
2,020 − 22m
What does the coefficient of the expression represent?
2,020 − 22m
What does the coefficient of the expression represent?
The coefficient of the expression, -22, represents the rate of depreciation of the gadget's sales value per month. That is, the value of the gadget decreases by $22 every month.
