9r
Explanation:
4r + 9r = 13r
13r-11r = 2r
2r + 7r = 9r

Answer: x > 2</h3>
Work Shown:
5x - 14x < - 18
-9x < - 18
x > -18/(-9)
x > 2
The inequality sign flips when dividing both sides by a negative number.
Here's another approach you could take.
5x - 14x < - 18
-9x < -18
0 < -18+9x
18 < 9x
9x > 18
x > 18/9
x > 2
It's a slightly longer pathway, but it avoids a sign flip when you divide both sides by the positive number 9.
The sign flip happens two steps earlier when going from 18 < 9x to 9x > 18. In other words, A < B is the same as B > A.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
See attachment for MNPQ and RSTU
Required
Find x and y
To solve this question, we make use of equivalent ratios of corresponding side lengths.
The ratio of corresponding sides are:
From the attachment, we have:
To solve for x, we equate and
Express as fraction
Make x the subject
To solve for y, we equate and
Express as fraction
Make y the subject
When you subtract and add what is in the parentheses you would get -15 so I’m guessing he didn’t go from left to right when working inside the parentheses but when you solve the whole problem out you would get the answer: -41.25 If I missed something or you need me to show the work just let me know but I hope this helps !
