0.5x - 2 < 5.5
Add 2 to both sides.
0.5x < 7.5
Now divide by 0.5 on both sides.
x < 15
We can use ratios to find the answer to this.
Set up the ratio.
3/4 / 18/7 = x / 1
Multiply both sides by 1
3/4 / 18/7 = x
Inverse 18/7 to 7/18 so we can multiply.
3/4 * 7/18 = x
Multiply.
21/72 = x
Simplify7/24 = x
Therefore, 7/24 cups of oats is used per pound.
13. 1
14. 1
15. any number and 0 will have a quotient of 0.
for example 7/0=0 . 8/0=0 . 9/0=0
if you try and check your work using multiplication 7*0=0 . 8*0=0 . 9*0=0
then you will realize the rule is right
x>7
Step-by-step explanation:
when dividing by a (-)
the inequality sign changes
