Question

PLZ HELP !! Which of the points (s, t) is not one of the vertices of the shaded region of the

set of inequalities shown below?

Answer 1

(16, 4)

Explanation:

AP3X

Answer 2

A(0,10)

Explanation:

Given the 4 inequalities:

s ≥ 12 - 0.5t (1)

s ≥ 10 -t (2)

s ≤ 20-t (3)

s ≥ 0

t ≥ 0

Let analyse all 4 possible answer:

• A(0, 10)

Let substitute this point into (1) we have: 10 ≥ 12 -0.5*0 Wrong

We do not choose A

• B (0, 20)

Let substitute this point into (1) we have: 20 ≥ 12 -0.5*0 True

Let substitute this point into (2) we have: 20 ≥ 10 - 0 True

Let substitute this point into (3) we have: 20 ≤ 20 - 0 True

We choose B as the vertex

• C. (4, 16)

Let substitute this point into (1) we have: 16 ≥ 12 -0.5*4 True

Let substitute this point into (2) we have: 16 ≥ 10 - 4 True

Let substitute this point into (3) we have: 16 ≤ 20 - 4 True

We choose C as the vertex

• D. (16,4)

Let substitute this point into (1) we have: 4 ≥ 12 -0.5*16 True

Let substitute this point into (2) we have: 4 ≥ 10 - 16 True

Let substitute this point into (3) we have: 4 ≤ 20 - 16 True

We choose B as the vertex

Hence, the point A(0,10) is not one of the vertices of the shaded region of the set of inequalities.
