Distribute 2(1-5a)
8a+2-10a<20
Combine like terms
-2a+2<20
Subtract 2 from both sides
-2a<18
Divide both sides by -2, when dividing by a negative number flip the sign
So the answer is a>-9

Okay. Basically, a is greater than or equal to 9.
First, you do distribute the 2.
8a+2-10a(< or =)20
Subtract two on both sides.
8a-10a(< or =)18
Then subtract 10a from 8a
-2a(< or =)18
Divide by two on both sides
and switch around the greater than sign since you divided by a <span>-2
</span>a(> or =)-9
<span>And if you check, -9 works, -8 works, and -10 doesn't work.</span>

Answer:

The friend caught the ball at 2 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. False; the ball was not still in the air at 1 second the x-component of the vertex is 0.5.

2. False; the x-component of the vertex is 0.5

3. True; the ball was tossed at a height of 2 feet (when x=0, y=2), it is safe to assume the ball was caught at the same height.

4. False; when x = 0, y = 2.

Furkat [3]

Answer:

1/2 of the lasagna was left or 6/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Her family ate 1 whole pan of the first lasagna and 1/2 of the second pan. If they ate 1/2 from the second pan then there will be 1/2 left or in this case 6/12 because she cut it in 12 pieces.

Hope this helped :)

How do you eliminate 6x-12y=24 along with -x-6y=4
liraira [26]
First you need to multiply by a factor that will givr you the same value in one of the x or y value.
(6x-12y=24)1
+(-x-6y=4)-2
6x-12y=24
=2x+12y=-8
8x=16÷8
x=2
now that you have x, substitute x by 2 in one of the eqauations
-2-6y=4
+2. +2
=-6y=6
÷-6. ÷-6
y=-1
