Which statement describes the size of the inner planets? all the inner planets, except Mercury, are large.

The inner planets are larger than the outer planets.

all the inner planets are smaller than the outer planets.

Mars is a large planet, while the other inner planets are small.

C-All of the inner planets are smaller than outer planets.

Step-by-step explanation:

all the inner planets are smaller than the outer planets.

Mars is a large planet, while the other inner planets are small.

Explanation:

options A is wrong mercury is not large and mercury is inner planet.

options B is wrong because inner planet is smaller than outer planet. by the way outer planet are large because they are made from gas.

options C is correct see the explanation above

options D is incorrect because Mars is not a large planet. all terrestrial planet/inner planet/rocky planet are made up of rock so the first fourth planet is small than the outer planet.

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
