Answer:

Step 1 Eliminate fractions by multiplying all terms by the least common denominator of all fractions.

Step 2 Simplify by combining like terms on each side of the inequality.

Step 3 Add or subtract quantities to obtain the unknown on one side and the numbers on the other.

Step 4 Divide each term of the inequality by the coefficient of the unknown. If the coefficient is positive, the inequality will remain the same. If the coefficient is negative, the inequality will be reversed.

Step 5 Check your answer.

one positive integer is 2 less than another. The product of the two integers is 24. what are the two integers?

irinina [24]

If one is positive we can conclude that the other is also positive

Positive*positive=positive(24)

The product of the two numbers is 24

And the smaller number is less than the greater number by 2

Factors of 24=1*24,2*12,3*8,4*6.

The only pair with the diffrence of two is 4*6

Therefore the two integers are 4 and 6

I believe it is A and C.

There are 6 slots on the wheel, so both the numbers in A and E can be divided/multiplied to fit this criterion. For example, 3 times 2 is 6 (the number of gender slots) and 1 times 2 is two, so two out of 6 art teachers will be female.

I hope this helps!!!

A steamer going downstream traveled the distance between two ports in 3 hours. The return trip took 3 hours 40 minutes. Find the

lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

1.8 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed of the steamer in still water is 18 mph.

Speed of the current = x mph.

1. The steamer going downstream traveled the distance between two ports in 3 hours. Traveling downstream the current "helps" the steamer, then the speed is 18 + x mph.

The distance traveled downstream = 3(18 + x) miles.

2. The steamer going upstream traveled the distance between two ports in 3 hours 40 minutes that is $3\frac{2}{3}$ hours. Traveling upstream the current "interferes" the steamer, then the speed is 18 - x mph.
