Length=3x
Width=x
3x+x+3x+x=128
8x=128
Divide both sides by 8
x=16
3(x)
3(16)=58
Width= 16 yards
Length= 58 yards
Answer:
- x < 2.5
- x > 2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
One way to do this is to try a number for x and see if it makes the inequality true. A suitable number here is x=0. This value of x is less than 2.5.
<h3>1.</h3>
For x=0, you have ...
5 > -5 . . . . . true; the solution space is x < 2.5
__
<h3>2.</h3>
For x=0, you have ...
-25 > -5(2.5)
-25 > -12.5 . . . . . false; the solution space is x > 2.5
_____
<em>Alternate solution</em>
<h3>1.</h3>
Subtract 5:
-4x > -10
Divide by -4
x < 2.5
__
<h3>2.</h3>
Divide by -5:
5 < x +2.5
Subtract 2.5
2.5 < x
x > 2.5
Just move the decimal twice to the right. So 11%
90/36 is 2.5, so the Baker needs to make 2.5 batches of cookies
2.5 batches of cookies x 2.25 cups of flour
is 5.625 cups of flour
which is 5 5/8 cups of flour
You need to do 20 divide by 21 to get a decimal. Then if you multiply the decimal by hundred you should get the percentage.
