Wilmer spends at least 13 hours reading for his assignments each week, plus 1 hour completing each Reading Response assignment. The inequality that represents the total number of hours, y, Wilmer reads for his various assignments each week is y≥x+13, where x

represents the number of Reading Response assignments he completes.

This week, Wilmer can spend only 5

hours total reading for his various assignments.

Which explanation correctly analyzes whether there is a solution for this scenario?
There is no solution. For the inequality to be true, the value of x has to be negative. This is impossible because Wilmer can't have a negative number of Reading Response assignments.

The ordered pair (−8,5) is a solution to the inequality y≥x+13. This ordered pair shows that Wilmer can complete 8 Reading Responses in the 5 hours.

The ordered pair (5,18) is a solution to the inequality y≥x+13. This ordered pair shows that Wilmer can complete 18 Reading Responses in the 5 hours.

There is no solution. For the inequality to be true, the value of x has to be a fraction. This is impossible because Wilmer can't have a fractional number of Reading Response assignments.****

you reading this. obviously this question is on a school test isn’t it? you’re cheating your way through school and you’ll regret that in 10 years when you know nothing because you were a lowlife lazy child with no motivation to even try. disgusting.
Hello Maybelline.

the correct answer is there is no solution because the value of x has to be a fraction. hope this helps with your math homework your cheating on by looking up the answer.
yeah ok karen
im guessing this is for algebra 1a checkpoint 14 ? i got 100% on it lmk idk how to give you the graph answers but go to desmos and put the equation in and it will help you. But for the world problems i can help. answers- "He makes more than $11 per hour plus $35 in tips." "6s+8c≥900" "45t+20b≤150" "There is no solution. For the inequality to be true, the value of x has to be negative. This is impossible because Wilmer can't have a negative number of Reading Response assignments. find the right question for the answer and put it in.
