Help me plz it’s confusing
Alja [10]
X+8>= 18
therefore, the circle has to be on ten, (solid) and an arrow pointing to the right, 
10+8>=18 which is true.

-7+x>= -8
the circle is going to be on -1, (solid) and pointing to the right.  
-7 +-1 (-8) >=-8 which is true, then -7 +0>= -8 which is true
n-2<=4 so, the answer is a dot (solid) on 6 pointing to the left 
6-2 (4) <=4 then 5-2 (3) <= 4 which both are true

-18+n<-7
so this answer is going to be on 10, and it will be a hollow dot, pointing to the left
-18+10 (-8) <-7 which is true
n-4>=13
so, this has to be greater than or equal to 13.
n must be greater than or equal to 17 (add 4 to both sides) so the dot (solid) is going to be on 17 and pointing to the right.

NOTICE: I had a different explanation for number 9, which is how I figured each one out.
Hope this helped! Sorry it took so long!

Note: Enter your answer and show all the steps that you use to solve this problem in the space provided. Annika borrowed a book
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

Annika was 14 days late with her book.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first four days would cost Annika 1.0 dollar (4x0.25), then we need to divide the rest of the ammount by 0.30 to calculate for how many days she paid the 0.30 dollar fine.

4.00 - 1.00 = 3.00

3.00/0.30 = 10

Therefore, Annika was 4 +10 = 14 days late with her book.
