If you multiply or divide by a positive number the inequality sign DOES NOT CHANGE!
If you multiply or divide by a negative number the inequality sign flips around and becomes the opposite.
Answer: The answer is given below
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we are informed that the money m (in £) Xavier has to spend each week is his wage w (in £) subtract the tax t (in £) he pays on his income. Therefore, the formula for the money he can spend will be:
m = w - t
The amount of money that he has to spend if he earns £120 a week and pays £41 in tax will be:
m = w - t
m = £120 - £41
m = £79
Let the speed of the current equal c
and the speed of the boat in still water equal b.
b + c = 1.5 (b - c)
b + c = 1.5b - 1.5c
0.5b = 2.5c
b = 5c
The speed of the current is 1.5 mph so
b = 5 * 1.5 = 7.5 mph
The tree will both be 5 feet after 2 years.
y=x + 3
y = 1/2x + 4
Answer:
a = 6, b = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
5a - 4 = 2a + 14
3a = 18
a = 6
6 = 2b
b = 3
