Given statement is "If x < y, then all of the following are true except _____."

so that means we have to find the statement which is not equivalent to x<y.

1. -x < -y

Answer:

divide both side by -1

x > y  {inequality sign flips when multiplying or dividing by negative number}


Clearly x<y and x>y are not same.

Hence first choice is wrong.


2. 2x < 2y

Answer:

divide both side by 2

x < y  {inequality sign flips only when multiplying or dividing by negative number}


Clearly x<y and x<y are same.

Hence this choice is correct.


3. x + 2 < y + 2

Answer:

subtract 2 from both sides.

x < y  {inequality sign flips only when multiplying or dividing by negative number}


Clearly x<y and x<y are same.

Hence this choice is correct.


4. x/2 < y/2

Answer:

multiply both sides by 2.

x < y  {inequality sign flips only when multiplying or dividing by negative number}


Clearly x<y and x<y are same.

Hence this choice is correct.

Answer

1. - x < -y

Step by step explanation

When we multiply, add and divide the value remains the same.

But when you change the sign, the inequality direction will be > in this case, otherwise that is not ture.

For instance,

2 < 3

-2 < -3 is not true.

Because -2 is greater than -3

Hope this will help you.

Thank you. :)

Identify the domain and range of the function graphed below. <br><br><br><br>​
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

Domain: (-∞, 4]

Range: [0, ∞)

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Algebra I</u>

  • Domain is the set of x-values that can be inputted into function f(x)
  • Range is the set of y-values that are outputted by function f(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the graph, we see the line's x-value span from negative infinity to 4. Since 4 is closed dot, it is inclusive in the domain:

(-∞, 4] or x ≤ 4

According to the graph, we see the line's y-value span from 0 to infinity. Since 0 is closed dot, it is inclusive in the range:

[0, ∞) or y ≥ 0

PLEASE HELP! Explain your answer, THANK YOU!
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

-2/-3

Step-by-step explanation:

(75, 60) (45, 40)

75       60               since 75 is larger than 45, we subtract = -30

45       40               since 60 is larger than 40, we subtract = -20

= -20/-30

reduce

= -2/-3
