To figure out which is not equivalent to the others,, we must solve each option provided. x < -2 is already solved,, so there is no need to do any work that option.
The first step for solving x - 2 < 4 is to move the constant to the right side and then change its sign.
x < 4 + 2
Now add the numbers together to get your final answer.
x < 6
This means that we have one option that equals x < -2 and one option that equals x < 6.
Let's now solve 2x < -4 to see what that one equals. In order to solve this,, we need to divide both sides of the inequality by 2.
x < -2
Now we can see that it looks like all of the expressions are equivalent except for x - 2 < 4. Before we can confirm this though,, let's solve for x - 2 < -4. The first step for solving this is to move the constant to the right side and change its sign.
x < -4 + 2
Now calculate the sum of these two numbers to get your final answer.
x < -2
This tells us that all of the options are equivalent except for x - 2 < 4,, or option B.
Let me know if you have any further questions.

Which explains why the graph is not a function?
german

The statements that apply to the ratio of rice and water are:

  • The ratio of rice to water is 1 to 2.5
  • The ratio of water to rice is 2.5 to 1

<h3>Ratios</h3>

Ratios are used to compare quantities of different measurements

The entries on the table are given as:

<u>Rice          Water</u>

2                  5

3                  7.5

5                 12.5

8                 20

<h3>The ratios of both quantities</h3>

The ratio (r) of rice and water is then calculated as:

r = \frac{Water}{Rice}

Pick any corresponding table entry.

So, we have:

r = \frac{5}{2}

Divide

r = 2.5

This means that, the ratio of rice to water is 1 to 2.5, and the ratio of water to rice is 2.5 to 1
