Candice buys 2/8 of a container of roasted peanuts. Alan buys 2/3 of a container. Both containers are the same size. Candice says 2/8 is between 1/2 and 1, so she buys more peanuts than Alan. Is Candice correct? Explain.

probably .5

i can on others if necessary.

answer:

given the linear inequality :

add 2y to both sides we get;

simplify:

add 12 to both sides of an equation;

simplify:

divide both sides by 2 we get;

or

the related equation for the inequality equation [1] is;

y-intercepts defined as the graph crosses the y-axis.

substitute x =0 in [2] to solve for y;

y = 6

x-intercepts defined as the graph crosses the x-axis.

substitute value y = 0 to solve for x;

subtract 6 from both sides we get

multiply both sides by 2 we get;

or

x = -12

now, plot these point (0, 6) and (-12, 0) on graph as shown below and shade the graph below the solid line.
