If x and y are both positive, when is x-y negative

x and y are positive numbers. To get x-y a negative number while subtracting , the value of x should be less than the value of y.

For example, 5 - 9 = -4

x is 5 and y is 9 both are positive. 5 - 9  is -4 that is negative.

5 is less than 9

x - y is negative when the positive value of x is less than the positive value of y.

The inequality which represents the missing dimension x is x≥1.6 or x≥8 / 5.

Given that the area is greater than or equal to 8 square feet and image is attached below.

We want to find the missing inequality x in the form of inequality.

The figure is assumed to be a right triangle with Root = x and perpendicular = 10ft.

As we know the area of ​​a triangle is half the product of the base and the height.

First of all, we will find the area of ​​the triangle by substituting the given values ​​we get

Area=(1/2)×Base×height

Area=(1/2)×x×10

Area=5x      ......(1)

Assume that this area is greater than or equal to 8 square feet.

That means Area≥8ft²      ......(2)

Now we will balance equation (1) and equation (2), we get

5x≥8ft²

Furthermore, they we will divide both sides by 5 we get

(5x)/5≥8/5

x≥8/5

x≥1.6

Therefore, the inequality represents the missing size x when the area is larger or equal to 8 square feet is x ≥1.6ft².

Seventeen members of Tim's family are going to an amusement park during the week of their family reunion. Adult tickets cost $34
baherus [9]

Answer:

c.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of adults in Tim's family. Then (17 - x) is the number of children in Tim's family.

We have $34x + $31.5(17 - x) = $558.

$34x + $31.5(17 - x) = $558

$34x + $535.5 - $31.5x = $558

$2.5x = $22.5

x = 9

Hence the answer is c.
