6. Question #1 Q:Write four separate compound inequalities representing the running times of each decade. (come up with a compound inequality for the 1970’s, 1980’s etc.) A:Each compound inequality is on its respective page with the inequality for the whole project on the front page.

7. Question #2 Q: Graph the inequalities from the 1970’s on a number line. Plot the other compound inequalities from the other decades on the same number line. State your observations. A: a. The number line for each is on its respective page. b. The number line for the whole project is on the front. c. The length of the movies vary greatly, and I do not see a specific increasing or decreasing pattern.

8. Question #3 Q: Plot the data of all 20 movies on a coordinate plane. Make sure to label each axis clearly. A:a. Graph Movie Length(Minutes) Year b. Equation: y = 5x - 65

9. Question #4 Q: Use your equation found in #3 above to solve an inequality to determine the years in which the running time of the movies are greater than 3 ½ hours. A: This answer is not reasonable because movies are not getting longer or shorter. Everything depends on what movie it is and who created it.

10. Question #5 (Part 1) Q: Present the findings of your results. a. Include a list of movies, years, and running times. b. Any equations or inequalities you found c. Any graphs you made d. Discuss the results i. Are producers claims correct? Are movies getting longer? Explain e. If the trend continues, how long will movies be in the 2060’s? i. Does this make sense?

11. Question #5 (Part 2) A: a. A chart of each decade’s movies can be found on its respective page. b. Equations and inequalities are found and clearly marked on that decade’s page. c. Graphs are clearly marked on their page(EX: Scatter Plot, page 8, or, Question #3)

12. Question #5 (Part 3) d. i. No, producers claims are not correct, and movies are not getting longer or shorter. Based on my research, I can conclude that there is no trend in movie lengths and it is all dependent of what movie it is and who wrote/directed it. e. Movies are not getting longer. i. No, because movies are not getting longer.
