To solve -7y > 161, we divide both sides by -7 and we get y < -23. The inequality sign flipped because we divided both sides by a negative number.
To solve 7y > -161, we divide both sides by 7 and it leads to y > -23. The inequality sign does not flip in this case, because we are not dividing both sides by a negative number.
The similarities is that we end up with -23 on the right side, but the inequality signs are different.

Answer:
59) not similar
60)
Step-by-step explanation:
59) The ratios of the side lengths shown cannot be reduced. They are different, so the triangles are not similar.
7:8:12 ≠ 6:7:11
__
60) The side length ratios both reduce to 8:7:10, so the triangles are similar.
∆ABC ~ ∆JKL
The scale factor is LJ/CA = 25/20 = 5/4. (Multiplying ABC by 5/4 will give JKL.)
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a parabola in vertex form is
y = a(x - h)² + k
where (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier
To obtain this form use the method of completing the square.
Given
f(x) = - 0.6x² + 4.2x + 240 ← factor out - 0.6 from the first 2 terms
= - 0.6(x² - 7x) + 240
To complete the square
add/ subtract ( half the coefficient of the x- term)² to x² - 7x
f(x) = - 0.6(x² + 2(- 3.5)x + 12.25 - 12.25 ) + 240
= - 0.6 (x - 3.5)² + 7.35 + 240
= - 0.6(x - 3.5)² + 247.35
with vertex = (3.5, 247.35 )
The maximum value is the y- coordinate of the vertex
Then
f(x) = - 0.6(x - 3.5)² + 247.35 has a maximum value of 247.35
Answer:
x = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
First, add 1/3 to both sides. You end up with 5/6x = -5/3. Next, you divide both sides by 5/6. You should finish with x = -2.
