Question

A city determines that a planned community must have at least 4 acres of developed and open space, and the difference

between the number of developed acres, y, and the number of open acres, x, can be no more than 1. Which graph
represents the system of inequalities for this scenario?

Answer 1

Answer: It's B

Step-by-step explanation: I just did it on edge 2020

Answer 2

The graph in the attached figure

Explanation:

Let

x -----> the number of open acres

y ----> the number of developed acres

we know that

`x+y \geq 4` -----> inequality A

`x\leq 1` ----> inequality B

Remember that

if the number of open acres, x, can be no more than 1. then the number of open acres, x must be less than or equal to 1

Solve the system of equations by graphing

The solution is the shaded area (Note The number of acres cannot be a negative number)
