To solve this inequality, you need to isolate the value of u. To do this, divide both sides by -2. When you do this, keep in mind that when you divide or multiply both sides by a negative in an inequality, you MUST flip the sign, so your answer would be -8 < u or u > -8.

U> -8 is your answer.

Solve by simplifying both sides of the inequality, then isolate the variable.

A farmer sells carrots and squash. A customer buys 1 pound of carrots and 1.5 ponds of squash for $7.00. Another customer buys 4
Otrada [13]

Answer:

$1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

1 pound of carrot and 1.5 pounds of squash cost $7.00.

1c + 1.5s = 7 ----------------- [ 1 ]

4.5 pounds of carrot and 1.75 pound of squash cost $14.00.

4.5c + 1.75s = 14 ----------------- [ 2 ]

<u>[ 1 ] x 4.5:</u>

4.5c + 6.75s = 31.5 ----------------- [ 1a ]

<u>[1a] - [2]:</u>

5s = 17.5

s = $3.50

<u>Sub s = 3.5 into [ 1 ]:</u>

1c + 1.5 (3.5)  = 7

1c + 5.25 = 7

1c = $1.75

Help!! Question on probability. Wi give brainliest!!
Aleks [24]

Answer:

P = \frac{5}{282} = 0.0177

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find the total amount of apples in the crate:

Total = 10 + 14 + 4 + 18 = 46 apples

The probability of the first apple being a golden delicious apple is the number of those apples over the total number of apples:

P(golden) =   \frac{N(golden)}{N(total)}

P(golden) = \frac{4}{48} = \frac{1}{12}

Then, the probability of the second apple being a granny Smith apple is the number of those apples over the total number of apples, but now the total number of apples is one less, because one apple was removed from the crate:

P(granny) = \frac{N(granny)}{N(total)-1}

P(granny) = \frac{10}{47}

The final probability we want is the product of those two probabilities:

P = P(golden) * P(granny) = \frac{1}{12} \frac{10}{47} = \frac{10}{564} = \frac{5}{282}= 0.0177

Sonja [21]

Answer: The interest rate is .166%

Step-by-step explanation:

So what I did was divide $50(Amount at the end) by 6 (the number of months). Which would give me the amount of money he made per month ($8.333...). So then $8.333.../$5000(Total $) is .166...% (Interest rate)

german

Answer:

26 wins , 14 ties

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Hockey teams receive 2 points when they win and 1 point when they tie. One​ season, a team won a championship with 66 points. They won 12 more games than they tied.

To Find: How many wins and how many ties did the team​ have.

Solution:

let the number of wins hockey team have =\text{x}

let the number of ties hockey team have   =\text{y}

Now,

Hockey teams receive 2 points when they win and 1 point when they tie.

2\text{x}+\text{y}=66

They won 12 more games than they tied

\text{x}-\text{y}=12

Solving both equations we get

\text{x}=26

\text{y}=14

Hence, the hockey team have 26 wins and 14 ties.
