3. Airen says any values of x and y satisfying the linear equation y = x + 5 also satisfy the inequality
y < x + 5. Do you agree with Airen? Justify your answer.
4. Katherine bought some cans of sardines and corned beef. She gave the store owner Php 200 as
payment. However, the owner told her that the amount is not enough. What could be the reasons?
What mathematical statement would represent the given situation?
Due to the rising prices of food commodities, you decided to raise broiler chickens for your family’s
consumption. You sought permission from your parents and asked them to give you some amount to start
with. Your parents agreed to give you some money; however, they still need to see how you will use it.
They asked you to prepare a budget proposal for the chicken house that you will be constructing, the
number of chickens to be raised, the amount of chicken feeds, and other expenses.
