Hello there!

n - 5 ≤ 5n - 1

Solve for n

Let's start by subtracting 5n from both sides

n - 5 - 5n ≤ 5n - 5n - 1

n - 5 - 5n ≤ -1

We need to transfer -5 on the other side, we can do that by adding 5 on both sides

n - 5 - 5n + 5 ≤ -1 + 5

n - 5n ≤ -4

-4n ≤ -4

Finally divide both sides by -4

-4n/-4 ≤ -4/-4

n ≥ -1   (This is the answer)!

Do you know why I changed the sign?


 A lot of students failed to remember that rules, which is:
When you are solving an inequality, if you divide both sides by a negative sign, you MUST change the symbol as well. If it was this <, it will change to this >. Got it? Cool!



I hope the steps are clear to understand. If you have questions, feel free to let me know...

As always, I am here to help!

What is the base 8 representation of the number 11100111(2)
kondor19780726 [428]

Remark

You could convert base two to base 10 and then convert base 10 to base 8. That's the long way. The procedure below is the short way.

Step One

Write the base 2 number in groups of 3 starting from the right and going left

11 100 111

Step Two

Convert the base 2 numbers in groups of 3 to base 8. The largest result will be a 7

11 = 2*1 + 1 = 2 + 1 = 3

100 = 1*2^2 = 4

111 = 1*2^2 + 1*2 + 1 = 7

Step Three

Read the answer going down.

347 is the answer

Answer

347(8) = C

PLEASE HELP ASAP
Svetradugi [14.3K]
The area ratio is 1:16 meaning that the old area is 1 while the new area is 16. So this is another way of saying "the area is multiplied by 16"

Take the square root of each part of the ratio of 1:16 and we get 1:4

So this is the scale factor. It tells us how the linear components of the circles relate to one another. If the circumference of the smaller circle is 1,then the larger circle has a circumference of 4.

Therefore, the circumference has been multiplied by 4
