The difference of twice a number and 9 is at least −15

1 answer:

6 0

Difference means subtraction (-)
Twice a number means × 2
is at least ≥

Put it all together
2b - 9 ≥ -15

Then you can solve for b
2b - 9 ≥ -15
2b ≥ -15 + 9
2b ≥ - 6
b ≥ - 6/2
b ≥ - 3

write a division problem thaty has a 3 digit dividend and A DIVISOR BETWEEN 10 AND 29. show how to solve it

Mashutka [201]

First we think of a 3 digit dividend for example 100.
Next we think of a divisor between 10 and 29 for example 20.
We divide 100÷20=5

Here's a division problem:

Sophia has 100 pencils. She has 20 boxes with the same number of pencils in them. How many pencils does Sophia put her box?

Divide 100 by 20 which equals 5

Your answer is 5

Ierofanga [76]

Answer: 34 days

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out the amount of pages he needs to read each day at the rate of 6 pages/day is 204/6. (we divide 204 by 6 because that is 215-11, since he already read 11 pages) this is 34

Someone tell me working out please?

kozerog [31]

So you need to know that
1. 360 degrees=1 full rotation
2. internal angle of a pentagon
3. internal angle of a square

so we know that
internal pentagon angle+internal pentagon angle+internal angle of square+x=360

internal angle of pentagon=54
internal angle of square=90
so now we have
54+54+90+x=360
198+x=360
subtract 198 from boths ides
x=162
answer is x=162 degrees
