Go step by step

23 is decreased by : 23 -

The product of 44 and an unknown number

Let x represent the unknown number
And Product means multiplication

The product of 44 and an unknown number : 44x

Equals 199 : = 199

Now, put that all together

23 - 44x = 199

Now, begin to solve

Subtract 23 on both sides of the equation

-44x = 176

Divide both sides of the equation by -44 to isolate x

x = -4

The unknown number is -4

<span>If i started a business making braclets for $2 and necklaces for $3 with a budget >200 what would be the inequality equation?
How would I graph

Solution:
let x= number of bracelets
    y= number of necklaces

Thus, the equation would be:
</span>$2x+$3y>200

In graphing this equation, you just have to substitute any number for the values of x and y as long as when substituted, their sum is greater than 200
