The difference of a number and -6 is less than 9 write an inequality and solve

Mathematics
1 answer:
Pavlova-9 [17]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

n - (-6) < 9

n < 3

Step-by-step explanation:

When setting up an inequality, using the key words from the problem will help.  The word 'difference' would indicate subtraction and 'less than' would be the '<' inequality sign.  Since the expression is 'the difference of a number and -6', we write:  

n - (-6) < 9

Whenever we subtract a negative number, we change both signs to positive:

n + 6 < 9

Using inverse operations to solve:  n + 6 - 6 < 9 - 6

n < 3

What is the expression x - 4 represents a negative integer. What integers could X represent?
zlopas [31]
The expression x-4 will come out to be a negative integer. That means X <em>has to be </em>something that when 4 is taken away from it, the answer is still negative.

Let's try 5.
5-4 is 1. Is 1 negative? No, so that doesn't work.
4-4 is 0. 0 isn't negative either, so that doesn't work.
3-4 is -1. Is -1 negative? YES! Let's try it for 2 as well, just to be safe.
2-4 is -2. Still negative.

X can be anything less than 4.

What is the value of x?<br><br>A. 155°<br>B. 60°<br>C. 35<br>D. 25°​
Harman [31]

Answer: C

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you should see that the bottom right corner is an angle on the other side. So subtract 180 from 95 to get 85. Since all angles in a triangle add up to 180, You do 85 + 60 + x = 180. You simplify further to get 145 + x = 180.

Subtracting 145 from both sides leaves you with x = 35, which gives you C.

So C is the correct answer.
