<span>x – 12 ≥ 18 Let's break down the sentence and create an inequality from it. We'll use X to represent the number. "Twelve fewer than a number is at least 18." The "Twelve fewer than a number" indicates subtraction, so let's do that. X - 12 "is at least 18." would be a greater than or equal relationship. So we have X - 12 ≥ 18 And we're done. The desired equation is: x – 12 ≥ 18</span>

Answer:

B) x - 12 ≥ 18.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Twelve fewer than a number is at least 18.

To find : Which inequality represents the following sentence?.

Solution : We have given

Twelve fewer than a number is at least 18.

Let the number be  x .

According to question :

Twelve is less than a number x .

x - 12  ( negative sign used for fewer).

x - 12 ≥ 18.

Here we used greater than equal to sign because x- 12 is at least 18 mean is must be 18 or greater than 18.

Then equation become x - 12 ≥ 18.

Therefore, B) x - 12 ≥ 18.

How do I prove that the figure is a rectangle ? <br> I really need help I don’t know what to do.
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

If all angles in a quadrilateral are right angles, then it’s a rectangle (reverse of the rectangle definition). (Actually, you only need to show that three angles are right angles — if they are, the fourth one is automatically a right angle as well.)

If the diagonals of a parallelogram are congruent, then it’s a rectangle (neither the reverse of the definition nor the converse of a property).

If a parallelogram contains a right angle, then it’s a rectangle (neither the reverse of the definition nor the converse of a property).

Tip: Do the following to visualize why this method works: Take an empty cereal box and push in the top flaps. If you then look into the empty box, the top of the box makes a rectangular shape, right? Now, start to crush the top of the box — you know, like you want to make it flat before putting it in the trash. As you start to crush the top of the box, you see a parallelogram shape. Now, after you’ve crushed it a bit, if you take this parallelogram and make one of the angles a right angle, the whole top has to become a rectangle again. You can’t make one of the angles a right angle without the other three also becoming right angles.

Answer:

1.Make the circle open

2.put the dot on 5

3. change direction

Step-by-step explanation:

A solid dot on a number line graph indicates that the given number should be included as a possible solution, whereas an open dot indicates that the given number cannot be a solution. For example, if you graph x > 7, you place an open dot at 7.

Have a nice day! :-)

The equal symbol with the wave meat "is Congeruent to"
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

angle 5 is 61°

angle 7 is 61°

Step-by-step explanation:

1. angle 7 + angle 8 = 90° Because they are complementary angles

2. Because of point 1 above, angle 5 + angle 6 = 90°

3. since given angle 6 = 29°

so, angle 5 = 90° - 29° = 61°

4. since given angle 5 = angle 8

so, angle 8 = 61°

5. from point 1 above,

angle 7 + 61° = 90°

so angle 7 = 29°
