Ezra works two summer jobs to save for a laptop that costs at least $1100. He charges $15/hr to mow lawns and $10/hr to walk dogs. He currently charges in half-hour intervals. Recall the inequality that represents this situation: . Ezra decides to charge per dog instead of per hour. How does the solution set change? What are the limitations on x and y? Explain.

Respuesta :

Answer:

The limitations on y-values changed from non-negative multiples of one-half to whole numbers, since Ezra cannot walk a fractional number of dogs.

The limitations on x-values did not change and must be non-negative multiples of one-half, since Ezra cannot work negative hours and charges by the half-hour.
