Isolate the x. Do the opposite of PEMDAS. First, add 30 to both sides
-6 (+30) > - 30 (+30) - 4x
24 > -4x
Isolate the x. Divide -4 from both sides. Note that when dividing a negative, you must flip the sign.
24/-4 > -4x/-4
24/-4 > x
-6 < x
-6 < x is your answer
hope this helps
Using Euclid's algorithm, the first number you check is their difference:
60 - 48 = 12
Since 12 divides both numbers evenly, that is your GCF.
_____
If the difference does not divide both numbers evenly, you can repeat the procedure with the difference and the remainder from dividing the smallest of the other numbers by the difference. For example, ...
GCF(60, 44) = GCF(44 mod 16, 16) = GCF(12, 16) = 4
It’s a composite because it has a multiple other than itself
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = the number of years since the first year and let y = the total number of plants.
Roses: y = 5 + 2x
Tulips: y = 20 – 3x
You can use elimination to solve.
y = 5 + 2x
(-)y = 20 – 3x
0 = -15 + 5x
15 = 5x
3 = x
This means that 3 years after the first year, the number of rose bushes equals the number of tulip plants.
The graphs appear to
intersect at (3, 11) which verifies that x=3
Answer:
$90
Step-by-step explanation:
8 + 4 = 12
12 x 3 (3 feet for each inch) = 36
36 x 2.50 (cost per square foot) = $90
