Answer:

 Sam made it -24 versus 24  (29-5=24  not -24)

(Sam failed to flip the inequality)

Step-by-step explanation:

-4x + 5 > 29

Subtract 5 from each side

-4x+5-5 > 29-5

-4x > 24      Sam made it -24 versus 24  (29-5=24  not -24)

Divide by -4  Remember to flip the inequality

-4x/-4 < 24/-4   (Sam failed to flip the inequality)

x < -6

Answer:

Sam subtracted wrong. it should be 29 - 5 = 24, not - 24.

When dividing by a negative, in an inequality, you must flip the sign. Sam did not flip his sign when dividing by -4.

Step-by-step explanation:

the answer should be x < -6

A small moving box has a volume of 2304 inches cubed and length of 16 inches. The box's width and height are the same. Write the
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

<em>V = 16x² </em>

<em>Width = 12in</em>

<em>Height = 12in</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of the box is expressed as;

V = Length *Width * height

Given

Length = 16in

Width = x

Height = x

The volume of the box will be expressed as;

V = 16 * x * x

<em>V = 16x² (This gives the required equation)</em>

To get x:

We are given

V = 2304in³

Substitute;

2304 = 16x²

x² = 2304/16

x² = 144

x= √144

x = 12

<em>Hence the width and the height are both 12inches since they are the same.</em>

Bert is planning to open a savings account that earns 1.6% simple interest yearly. He wants to earn exactly $240 in interest aft
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

D. $5,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of money he should deposit is the principal.

The principal P can be gotten by

P = 100 I /RT

Where

I = interest

R = rate

T = Time

Given

I = $240

R = 1.6%

T = 3 yrs

P = 100 x 240 /1.6 x 3

Multiply through

= 24000/4.8

= $5000

You need to solve a system of equations. You decide to use the elimination method. Which of these is not allowed?
Serggg [28]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The <u>Elimination Method</u> is the method for solving a pair of linear equations which reduces one equation to one that has only a single variable.

  • If the coefficients of one variable are opposites, you add the equations to eliminate a variable, and then solve.
  • If the coefficients are not opposites, then we multiply one or both equations by a number to create opposite coefficients, and then add the equations to eliminate a variable and solve.

When multoplying the equation by a coefficient, we multiply both sides of the equation (multiplying both sides of the equation by some nonzero number does not change the solution).

So, option B is not allowed (it is not allowed to multiply only one part of equation)
