Answer:

Any number less than 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number Lin multiplies by 7/8. So, we have:

(7/8)*x < 7/8

We need to find the possible values for x. Lets start by dividing both sides of our inequality by (7/8) in order to get x alone on the left side.

(7/8)*x / (7/8) < (7/8)/(7/8)

Reordering:

(7/8) / (7/8) * x < (7/8)/(7/8)

As any number divided by itself (except from 0) is equal to 1:

x < 1

So, the number that Lin multiplied by 7/8 MUST be less than 1. This is evident, as any positive number multiplied by a number less than 1 will decrease, doesn't matter if its a negative or positive number.

So, such number is less than 1. Any number less than 1 could be Lin's number.

almond37 [142]
This is a system where (f-g)(x) is wanted.
(16x-30)-(14x-6) .... 2x-24 *be careful with signs and parenthesis placement.

Now set 2x-24 = 0 and so x = 12

Answers & Step-by-step explanation:

<h2>PEMDAS (Parenthesis, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction)</h2>

Now let's solve your problems!

<h2>___________________________________________________</h2><h2>16.</h2>

First, we see if there are any parentheses. Since there are no parentheses, we will evaluate the exponent 3² first.

After this, our problem now looks like this:

<h2>\frac{41 - 9}{6 * 3 -26}</h2>

Next, since multiplication (not subtraction) is next on the list, we will evaluate 6 × 3, which equals 18.

After that, we will subtract:

41 - 9 = 32

18 - 26 = -8

We now have 32/-8 or 4/-1 or simply -4.

<h2>The answer is: -4</h2><h2>___________________________________________________</h2><h2>17.</h2>

With this, one, note the parentheses. This means that we will do these operations first.

(21 - 4²) = 5

(3 + 1) = 4

The problem now looks like this:

\frac{5 * 4}{8^{2}-44}

Next, we do the exponents:

8² = 64

After that, we do the multiplication of 5 x 4, which equals 20.

We now have 20/64 - 44, which simplifies to 20/20 or 1/1 or 1.

<h2>The answer is: 1</h2><h2>___________________________________________________</h2><h2>18.</h2>

Again, we see parentheses, so that means we need to do these operations first.

(6² - 20) = 16

We now have:

48 ÷ 16 + 5

48/16 = 3 and 3 + 5 = 8

<h2>The answer is: 8</h2><h2>___________________________________________________</h2><h2>19.</h2>

Here, we see an exponent 3³, so we'll need to evaluate this first.

3³ = 27

We now have:

4 × 27 ÷ 18 + 14

4 × 27 = 108

108/18 = 6

And finally:

6 + 14 = 20

<h2>The answer is: 20</h2><h2>___________________________________________________</h2><h2>20.</h2>

Here we again see the parentheses, which means we need to evaluate the subtraction first.

3 - 8 = -5

We now have:

11 + 2 (-5)

2 × -5 = -10

11 + -10 (same as 11 - 10) = 1

<h2>The answer is: 1</h2><h2>___________________________________________________</h2><h2><em>I AM ALWAYS HAPPY TO HELP :)</em></h2>

In parallelogram WXYZ, what is CY?<br> 11 ft<br> 15 ft<br> 21 ft<br> 23 ft
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

15 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

In a parallelogram the diagonals bisects each other

So WC= CY

x+4=2x-7 solve the equation for x

Subtract x from both sides

x-x+4=2x-x-7

4=x-7

Now we add 7 on both sides

4+7=x-7+7

x=11

Now we need to find CY

CY= 2x-7

Plug in 11 for x

CY= 2(11)-7=22-7= 15
