The absolute value of a number is positive, even if it says negative.
So | -8 | = 8

Which number line models the solution set of the following problem? One less than twice a number is no less than five. What is t
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

Option 1.

The solution set is: {n|n is a real number, n≥3}


Step-by-step explanation:

1. You must read carefully the information given in the problem: "One less than twice a number" indicates that you must write a number n multiplied by 2 and subtract 1 from this term, as following:

2n-1

2. "is not less than five" indicates that the result must be equal or greater than 5. Then, you obtain the following expression:

2n-1\geq5

3. Now, you can solve for n. Then, you obtain:

2n-1\geq5\\2n\geq6\\n\geq\frac{6}{2}\\n\geq3

4. Then, the solution set is: {n|n is a real number, n≥3}.

5. The correct plot on the number line must show a circle on 3 (You must fill in the circle if the sign is \leq or\geq) with a line from that circle to the right.

5. Therefore, the answer is the first option.

Two less than three times a number is equal to 19. What is the number?
EastWind [94]

The best way to approach a word problem like this

is to break it down into pieces, so we can understand it fully.

In this problem, we have a number, which we don't know.

We can use any variable to represent it.

So let's use the variable <em>n</em> to represent it.

"Two less than three times a number" means 3n - 2.

A common mistake is for students to put 2 - 3n.

However, the word "less than" switches the order around.

So we have 3n - 2 = 19.

Solving from here, we add 2 to both sides to get 3n = 21.

Now divide both sides of the equation by 3 and we have n = 7.

So the number is 7.

The perimeter of a triangle is 31cm. Side one and two have an equal length, while side three is one cm shorter then twice the le
Sav [38]

Answer:side one is 8cm

Side 2 is 8cm

Side 3 is 15 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a shape is the distance around the shape. The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the sides of the triangle.

Let x represent the length of side one and side 2. Since they have equal length, the sum of their length is x + x = 2x cm

Side three is one cm shorter then twice the length of side one. This means that the length of side three would be 2x - 1

The perimeter of a triangle is 31cm. Therefore,

2x + 2x - 1 = 31

4x - 1 = 31

4x = 31 + 1 = 32

x = 32/4 = 8 cm

Side three = 2×8 - 1 = 16 - 1 = 15
