Peaches are being sold for $2 per pound. if x represents the number of pounds of peaches bought and y represents the total cost of the peaches, which best describes the values of x and y?

the values of both x and y can be any real number.
the values of both x and y will be real numbers greater than or equal to 0.
the value of x can be any real number, but the value of y will always be a real number greater than or equal to 0.
the value of x can be any real number greater than or equal to 0, but the value of y must be an integer greater than or equal to 0.

The values of both x and y can be real numbers greater than or equal to 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a direct relationship between x and y, that is why the values of x and y can not be any real numbers. The value of y is dependent on the value of x, so, if x is 0 then y is 0. And if x is greater than 0, y also would be greater than 0.

step-by-step explanation:

we are given a graph for system of inequalities.

in order to write the system of inequalities for the given graph, we need to find the inequality for each of the line separately.

let us find the slope of dotted line first.

taking two coordinates on the graph.

let us say (0,0) and (3,1).

let us find the slope of the line now.

slope of the dotted line would be =.

y-intercept of dotted line is y=0 only.

plugging slope m= and b=0 in slope-intercept form y=mx+b, we get

.

the line is shaded up of that dotted line.

therefore, for shading up we would take greater than inequality symbol > .

and because it's a dotted line we would take only > symbol in place of = sign in above equation of line.

therefore, inequality for dotted line would be

let us take two points (3,1) and (0,4) on the solid line.

slope of the solid line would be =.

for the solid line we have y-intercept b= 4.

plugging slope m= -1 and b=4 in slope-intercept form y=mx+b, we get

y = -1x + 4.

the line is shaded down of that solid line.

therefore, for shading down we would take less than inequality symbol < .

and because it's a solid line we would take ≤ symbol in place of = sign in above equation of line.

therefore, inequality for solid line would be

answer: it is d
