What is the solution to the inequality? X-7>-6

1 answer:

4 0

The equation is saying x minus 7 is greater than -6, so treat the inequality symbol just how you would with a normal =. So x-7=-6, you need to find x, so to find x you need to keep x alone. So you get rid of the -7, so to do that since it is a negative you add 7 to -6, so that would mean that x=1. Now you put the inequality symbol back. So now it's x>1. This is the solution, x is greater than 1, or x>1. Hope this helps

Which pair shows equivalent expressions?

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Which pair shows equivalent expressions?

A.2(2/5x + 2)=2 2/5x + 1

B.2(2/5x + 2)=4/5x + 4

C.2(2/5x + 4)=4/5x + 2

D.2(2/5x + 4)=2 2/5x + 8

Solution:

$2(\frac{2}{5}x + 2)$

Let us distribute 2 inside the parenthesis.

That is, we use distributive property:

a(b+c)=ab+ac

$2(\frac{2}{5}x + 2) =\frac{2*2}{5}x+2*2$

So, $2(\frac{2}{5}x + 2) =\frac{4}{5}x+4$

Answer:Option (b)

$2(\frac{2}{5}x+4)$

Applying distributive property, a(b+c)=ab+ac

$2(\frac{2}{5}x+4) =2*\frac{2}{5} x+2*4$

$2(\frac{2}{5}x+4) =\frac{2*2}{5} x+2*4$

$2(\frac{2}{5}x+4) =\frac{4}{5} x+8$

So, Option (B) is correct.

oee [108]

I know my picture stinks, but it is possible. If you make it into a triangle shape, but move the table a bit closer to the throwing wheel (as shown) it works out great. If you ever get a problem like his again, just think outside the box for different solutions.

No correlation
A scatterplot is used to represent a correlation between two variables. There are two types of correlations: positive and negative. Variables that are positively correlated move in the same direction, while variables that are negatively correlated move in opposite directions.
