Question

The graph represents the system of inequalities for the scenario where X is the number of confirmed parties on a tour and why is the number of required copies of the itinerary. which constraint could be part of this system of equations?

○ at least two copies are required per tour.

○ more than two copies are required per tour.

○ the number of confirmed parties must be at least double the number of required copies.

○ the number of confirmed parties must be no more than double the number of required copies.
​

Answer 1

Answer: (A) At least 2 copies are required per tour.

Answer 2

none of the above (see explanation below)

Explanation:

The graph is of the inequalities ...

• y > 1 . . . . . . . more than 1 copy is required per tour
• y ≥ 2x . . . . . the number of copies must be at least double the number of confirmed parties

_____

The graph shows the number of copies as a continuous variable with a value greater than 1. If you assume it must be an integer, then its minimum value is 2, and you might say ...

○ at least two copies are required per tour

__

This is not the same as "more than 1 copy is required." (y > 1 is not the same as y ≥ 2)
