Answer:   \frac{35-28}{x} \leq 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the average number of pounds Fido must loss.

Since, the initial weight of Fido is 35 pounds.

And, After losing the weight, the new weight of Fido in pounds = 28 pounds.

Then the time taken for losing the weight

= \frac{\text{ The weight it losses}}{\text{ Average of losing weight per month}}

= \frac{35-28}{x}

According to the question,  it must lose weight within 6 months,

Thus,   \frac{35-28}{x}\leq 6

Which is the required inequality to find the average number of pounds per month.

By solving it we, get,    x\geq \frac{7}{6}

Anni [7]

Answer:

1 \frac{1}{5} centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

The diameter is equal to the radius × 2. We know that the radius is equal to 3/5 centimeters.

This equals \frac{6}{5}, or 1 \frac{1}{5} cm.

Why is the answer to a subtraction problem called the difference...
lana [24]
Maybe because you're finding the "difference" between the two numbers. We could also question why the answer to an addition problem is called sum.
Well, 'sum'body said that's what they should be called a long time ago, that's why we're using that term to call them now.

Зn - 3 = 4n + 1<br>step by step<br>​
JulsSmile [24]

Answer: n = -4

3n - 3 = 4n + 1

Add 3 to both sides

3n = 4n + 4

Subtract 4n from both sides

-n = 4

Divide by -1 on both sides

n = -4
