Mathematics

Answer:

x>-9

Step-by-step explanation:p

1.) Subtract 1 from both sides

-2/3x+1<7

-1<-1

= -2/3x < 6

2.) Multiple the 3 (denominator) in order to get rid of the fraction

3(-2/3x) < (6)3

= -6/3x < 18 (simplify the 6/3 into 2)

= -2x < 18

3.) Divide by -2 (when you divide with a negative number, your sin is going to switch, meaning it will turn into a '>' sign)

-2x / -2 < 18/-2

= x > -9

*ALSO*

If you want to graph it on a number line, it would look something like the picture above. (the circle is open because it doesn't have the line underneath. You're symbol also indicates which way you shade!! < = left .....> = right.....think of them like arrows :) )

Barry Allen loves fruit! At the farmers market he bought 88 pieces of fruit. He got twice as many apples as bananas, 5/6 as many
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

Barry had the following:

8 bananas

12 apples

20 kiwi

32 peaches

8 grapefruit

4 mangos

88 total

Step-by-step explanation:

Each of the amounts of fruit can be written in terms of one variable.  Starting with bananas as 'x', we can then make different values of 'x' to produce all the other numbers of fruits:

bananas = x

apples = 2x (twice as many bananas)

kiwi = 2.5x (5/6 of applies and bananas combined = 5/6(3x) or 2.5x)

peaches = 3.5x + 4 (sum of bananas and kiwis plus four = x + 2.5x + 4)

grapefruit = x (half as many apples = 2x/2)

mango = 0.5x (20% of kiwi = (0.2)(2.5)x)

88 = x + 2x + 2.5x + 3.5x + 4 + x + 0.5x

88 = 10.5x

8 = x (bananas)

apples = 2x or 16; kiwi = 2.5x or 20, peaches = 3.5x + 4 = 32, grapefruit = x or 8, mangos = 0.5x or 4

Coach Rivas can spend up to $750 on 30 swimsuits for the swim team. The inequality shown can be used to find the maximum amount
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

$0 < p ≤ $25

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that coach Rivas can spend up to $750 on 30 swimsuits.

This means that the maximum cost that the coach can afford to pay is $750, then if the cost for the 30 swimsuits is C, we have the inequality:

C ≤ $750

Now, if each swimsuit costs p, then 30 of them costs 30 times p, then the cost of the swimsuits is:

C = 30*p

Then we have the inequality:

30*p ≤ $750.

To find the possible values of p, we just need to isolate p in one side of the inequality.

So we can divide both sides by 30 to get:

(30*p)/30 ≤ $750/30

p ≤ $25

And we also should add the restriction:

$0 < p ≤ $25

Because a swimsuit can not cost 0 dollars or less than that.

Then the inequality that represents the possible values of p is:

$0 < p ≤ $25
