At tennis practice, Tim practices his backhand and his serve at least 2 hours each day. He works less on his backhand than his serve and practices his serve more than hour daily. What will the system of inequalities be that represents Tim’s daily tennis practice if x represents the number of hours spent practicing his backhand and y represents the number of hours practicing his serve?

Final answer:

The system of inequalities that represents Tim's daily tennis practice is x ≥ 2 and y > 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

To represent Tim's daily tennis practice, we will use the following system of inequalities:

x represents the number of hours spent practicing backhand.

y represents the number of hours spent practicing serve.

Given that Tim practices his backhand at least 2 hours each day and works less on his backhand than his serve, we can write the following inequality for the backhand practice: x ≥ 2.

And since Tim practices his serve more than an hour daily, we can write the following inequality for the serve practice:

y > 1.

So, the system of inequalities that represents Tim's daily tennis practice is:

x ≥ 2

y > 1

Tim practices his backhand and his serve at least 2 hours each day this means X =< 2 ( less than or equal to 2 hrs) He works less on his backhand than his serve and practices his serve more than hour daily. Y < 1
