What value could be added to 2/15 to make the sum greater than 1/2?A. 1/15B. 8/30C. 5/15D. 8/15

In order to find the required fraction, you can write the following inequality:

Solve the previous inequality for x by subtracting 2/15 both sides and simplifying:

Then, you hava that x must be greater than 11/30.

You can notice that from the given choices, 8/15 is the only number that is greater than 11/30 (you can check it by subtracting 11/30 to 8/15, you'll get a positive number).

Hence, 8/15 is the value you can add to 2/15 to get a greater number than 1/2

answer: just subtact the units and then add the non negative : happy to

step-by-step explanation:

the system of inequity is

step-by-step explanation:

from the given graph it is noticed that we have two related lines. one is solid and another is dashed.

if a line passing through two points, then the equation of line is

the solid line passing through the points (0,4) and (4,0).

the related equation of solid line is .

similarly, find the related equation of dashed line. the dashed liune passing through the points (0,0) and (3,1).

the related equation of dashed line is

from the given graph it is noticed that the point (0,1) lies on the shaded region, therefore the point (0,1) must be satisfied by the related equations.

check the related equations by the point (0,1).

this statement is true if the sign of inequality is < instead of equality. since it is an solid line therefore the sign of inequality will be . the required inequality is

similarly, check the second related equation.

it is a dashed line, so this statement is true if the sign of inequality is > . the required inequality is
