Negative 3.5 is less than negative 2 because if you had a number line 3.5 would be in the left side and negative 2 would be in the right. the nes on the left are less than the ones on the right . so -3.5 < -2

-3.5 would be less than -2. You a number line, it will help you understand integers a lot.

Alright, as you can see, -3.5 is located behind -2. Integers are confusing at first, but you'll soon learn! Just remember, the greater the negative, the lesser it's value will become. So -8 or -10 would both be less than -2.

Hope that helps! c:

X = boys
y = girls

x + y = 40 (in a class there are 40 students)
x = y + 10 (there are 10 more boys than girls in the class)

Bond [772]

Answer:

Coach's friend jog 8.6 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A coach jogs 1.8 miles on Monday, 1.3 miles on Tuesday, and 1.2 miles on Wednesday.

If the coach's friend jogs twice as far as the coach.

Now, to find the miles the coach's friend jog.

Coach jogs on Monday = 1.8 miles.

Coach jogs on Tuesday = 1.3 miles.

Coach jogs on Wednesday = 1.2 miles.

Total miles coach jog = $1.8+1.3+1.2=4.3\ miles.$

As, coach's friend jogs twice as coach.

So, to get the miles coach's friend jogs multiply total miles coach jog by 2 we get:

$Total\ miles\ coach\ jog\times 2$

$4.3\times 2\\\\=8.6\ miles.$

Therefore, coach's friend jog 8.6 miles.

Reorder the terms:

6 + 14x = 15x

Solving

6 + 14x = 15x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-15x' to each side of the equation.

6 + 14x + -15x = 15x + -15x

Combine like terms: 14x + -15x = -1x

6 + -1x = 15x + -15x

Combine like terms: 15x + -15x = 0

6 + -1x = 0

Add '-6' to each side of the equation.

6 + -6 + -1x = 0 + -6

Combine like terms: 6 + -6 = 0

0 + -1x = 0 + -6

-1x = 0 + -6

Combine like terms: 0 + -6 = -6

-1x = -6

Divide each side by '-1'.

x = 6

Simplifying

x = 6

We rewrite the expresion:
((t+3)/(t+4))*(1/(t^2+7t+12))
We have then
((t+3)/(t+4))*(1/((t+4)*(t+3)))
Rewriting tge expression:
(1/(t+4)^2)
Answer:
(1/(t+4)^2)
