9 - 7 3/8 = ? You could borrow: 8 + 1 - 7 3/8. Subtract 7 from 8 and get 1; subtract 3/8 from 1 and get 5/8. This leaves you with 1 5/8. Note how I have subtracted the integer 7 from the integer 9 and then the fraction 3/8 from the whole number 1.

Alternatively, you could write 9 as 72/8 and 7 3/8 as 59/8. Subtract 59/8 from 72/8 and get 13/8, which is equal to 1 5/8 (same answer as before).

Alternatively, you could write 9 as 9.000 and 7 3/8 as 7.375. Then
9.000-7.375 = 1.625 = 1 5/8 (same answer as before).

(x - 3) + (x - 6) + x = 63
x - 3 + x - 6 + x = 63
Combine like terms
3x - 9 = 63
Isolate the constant
3x - 9 + 9 = 63 + 9
3x = 72
Isolate the viable
3x / 3 = 72 / 3

City R has a temperature of -2 degrees. City S has a temperature of -6 degrees. Write an inequality to compare the temperatures

elena-s [515]

Answer:

-2 > -6 . . . or . . . R > S

Step-by-step explanation:

If you plot the temperatures of the two cities on a number line, you see that the temperature for City R is plotted to the right of the temperature for City S. This means the temperature of City S is less than that of City R.

If your inequality relates cities:

S < R or R > S

If your inequality relates temperatures:

-6 < -2 or -2 > -6
