3.03 Graphs of inequalities in two variables

Interactive practice questions

Two available entertainment options for the school holidays are movies and ice-skating, with costs shown below.

The inequality $12m+20s\le150$12m+20s150 represents the total amount of money you can spend between the two activities.

  • Movies, $m$m, which cost $\$12$$12 each
  • Ice-skating, $s$s, which costs $\$20$$20 per session

What does the point $\left(0,0\right)$(0,0) represent for this inequality?

The point $\left(0,0\right)$(0,0) represents the situation where you attended only ice-skating sessions.

A

The point $\left(0,0\right)$(0,0) represents the situation where you attended only movies.

B

The point $\left(0,0\right)$(0,0) represents no money spent on movies or ice-skating sessions.

C

The point $\left(0,0\right)$(0,0) represents that you spent all of your budget on movies and ice-skating sessions.
