Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving for x:

-3x + 8 ≥ 14

-3x ≥ 6

x ≤ -2

Notice the sign gets reversed when you divide or multiply by a negative number.

The only option less than -2 is -3, A.

Here's a tip: on multiple choice questions, sometimes it's faster to try each answer instead of solving the equation.  This can save time on tests like the SAT or ACT.

Let's try it:

-3(-3) + 8 = 9 + 8 = 17

-3(-1) + 8 = 3 + 8 = 11

-3(0) + 8 = 0 + 8 = 8

-3(3) + 8 = -9 + 8 = -1

So you can see the answer is A.

Convert the following percent to a decimal: 56 percent.
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

0.56

Step-by-step explanation:

Percent means 'per 100'. So 56% means 56 per 100 or simply 56/100. If you divide 56 by 100, you'll get 0.56.

56/100 = 0.56

Answer:Since the volume of a cylinder formula involves the radius, you can solve for the radius and double it to find the diameter.

Write the formula. Volume=π⋅radius2⋅height.

Substitute the dimensions of the shape into the formula. Use 3.14 as the value for π. 791.28=3.14⋅r2⋅28.

Solve the equation for the variable.
