Answer:

x > 11 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

-1/2-x < -12

Add 1/2 to each side

-1/2 + 1/2-x < -12+1/2

-x < -11 1/2

Multiply each side by -1, remembering to flip the inequality

-1 * -x > -11 1/2 * -1

x > 11 1/2

Answer:

x > 11½

Step-by-step explanation:

-1/2-x < -12

-x < -12 + 1/2

-x < -23/2

When you multiply/divide by a negative value, inequality reverses

x > 23/2

x > 11½

Plzzzzz help me with this
ehidna [41]

Answer:

We conclude that we must add 4² or 16 to complete the square.

Hence, option C i.e. 16 is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the perfect square formula is

<em>(a + b)² = a² + b² + 2ab</em>

Given the equation

x^2+8x

Let us add 4² or 16 in the equation

x^2+8x+4^2

x^2+\:2\left(1\right)\left(4\right)x+4^2

as <em>(a + b)² = a² + b² + 2ab, </em>so

<em />x^2+8x+4^2=\left(x+4\right)^2<em />

<em />

Therefore, we conclude that we must add 4² or 16 to complete the square.

Hence, option C i.e. 16 is the correct answer.

Write an equation of a line passing through the point (4,-9) and parallel to the line 3x-6y=30
sesenic [268]

The equation of a line in the slope intercept form is expressed as

y = mx + c

Where

m represents slope

c represents y intercept

The equation of the given line is expressed as

3x - 6y = 30

Rearranging it so that it will look like the slope intercept form, it becomes

6y = 3x - 30

Dividing both sides by 6, it becomes

6y/6 = 3x/6 - 30/6

y = x/2 - 5

Looking at the equation, slope, m = 1/2

If two lines are parallel, it means that they have equal slope. This means that the slope of the line parallel to the given line is 1/2

To determine the y intercept, c of the line passing through the point (4, - 9), we would substitute

x = 4, y = - 9 and m = 1/2 into the slope intercept equation. It becomes

- 9 = 1/2 * 4 + c

- 9 = 2 + c

c = - 9 - 2

c = - 11

By substtuting m = 1/2 and c = - 11 into the slope intercept equation, the equation of the line would be

y = x/2 - 11

K/2+1/2=3 find the k
NikAS [45]

Answer:

k = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\frac{k}{2} + \frac{1}{2} = 3 ( multiply through by 3 to clear the fractions )

k + 1 = 6 ( subtract 1 from both sides )

k = 5
