5 0

Answer:

x ≤8/5

Step-by-step explanation:

6x - 9 ≥ 11x - 17

Subtract 6x from each side

6x -6x-9 ≥ 11x - 17-6x

-9 ≥ 5x- 17

Add 17 to each side

-9+17≥ 5x - 17+17

8≥ 5x

Divide each side by 5

8/5≥ 5x /5

8/5≥ x

Find the slope of the line through each pair of point
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

slope = \frac{2}{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

= (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 6, 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (1, 5)

m = \frac{5-3}{1+6} = \frac{2}{7}

A positive real number is 2 more than another. If the sum of the squares of the two numbers is 42, find the numbers.
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the first sentence x (the number) is 2 more than another number (y). So, x+2=y. The sum of the squares of the two numbers is 42, meaning that \\ (x+2)^{2}+y^{2}=42. First, we square root the ENTIRE equation to get rid of the square. If you do one thing to one side, you have to do it to the other. After this, we have x+2+y=\sqrt{42}. Now, we subtract 2 from the other side to isolate the variable. You can isolate either one but normally I go for x. Now we have x+y=\sqrt{42}+2. Now, we want to get y to the other side so we subtract it from the left side and the right side which gives us x=-y+\sqrt{42}+2. now we know what X is equal to. Now we plug in x for \\ (x+2)^{2}+y^{2}=42, which gives us          (-y+\sqrt42}+2+2)^{2}+y^{2}=42. Now we only have one variable which is what we want. Next, we square root the entire thing to get rid of the squares, which gives us -y+\sqrt{42}+4+y=\sqrt{42}. I got lost in my work. I must have done something wrong I cant find out. If anyone wants to pick up where I left off go ahead but there's a timer and I have one minute left. I cant finish the problem in a minute. I'm sorry and hopefully I lead you somewhere.

Alex wants to arrange chairs in such a way that the number of chairs in a row is equal to the number of columns. He has ordered
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

84

59

Step-by-step explanation:

In other to have the same number of chayes in both rows and columns ;

If the Number of chairs per row = x ; then number of chairs per column = x

Then the total number of chairs needed = x * x = x²

Hence, if there are 5100 chairs ;

Number of chairs needed more ;

Take the square root of 5100 ;the round to the next whole number :

B.) For number of chairs to be removed ;

Take the square root of 5100 and round down to the whole number.

Hence,

A.) = √5100 = 71.414 = 72

72² - 5100 = 84

B.) 5100 = 71.414 = 71

5100 - 71² =

George is twice as old as Edward, and Edward's age exceeds Robert's age by 4 years. If the sum of the three ages is at least 56
marshall27 [118]

Answer:Robert's minimum age is 11 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent George's age.

Let y represent Edward's age.

Let z represent Robert's age.

George is twice as old as Edward. It means that

x = 2y

Edward's age exceeds Robert's age by 4 years. It means that

z = y - 4

If the sum of the three ages is at least 56 years, it means that

x + y + z ≥ 56 - - - - - - - - - - 1

Substituting x = 2y and z = y - 4 into equation 1, it becomes

2y + y + y - 4 ≥ 56

4y - 4 ≥ 56

4y ≥ 56 + 4

y ≥ 60/4

y ≥ 15

z = y - 4 = 15 - 4

z ≥ 11
