Using distributive property, it would become 14x.
It goes straight sideways
Answer:
34. A negative number multiplied by a positive number will always have a negative product. The right answer should be -8.14.
35. When dividing fractions, you have to use the same-change-flip rule. The work should be like this: -1/4 x 2/3 = -2/12 = -1/6. The correct answer is -1/6.
36. In this problem, you need to convert 2 1/5 into a decimal, then multiply by -30. (2.2 x -30) The answer is -66 degrees.
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
total no. of pupils is not more than 24
therefore first equation is
(x+y) ≤ 24. ....(1)
No. of girls exceeding the no. of boys by atleast 4
(y-x) ≥ 4. .....(2)
b) Now Liza chooses 8 boys
Maximum no. of girls = ?
Using first inequality
y+8= 24 ( maximum value of less than or equal to function is equal to itself)
Therefore,
y= 24-8
=16
Minimum no. of girls = ?
Using second inequality
y-8 =4 (minimum value of greater than or equal to function is equal to itself)
Therefore,
y= 4+8
y=12
Answer:
a) 2linear inequalities
(x+y) ≤ 24
(y-x) ≥ 4
b) Max no. of girls = 16
Min no. of girls = 12
Hope it helps...
