Spiders have 8 legs, roaches have 6 and so do bees, and deer, cows, and whatever other animal has antlers have 4.
8 spiders = 64 legs
5 roaches = 30
7 bees = 42
3 deer = 12
4 cows = 16
Other thing with antlers = 4
Add em all together and you get a total of 168 legs for all of the creatures.
The scale factor of dilation is 
.
<h3>What is scale factor?</h3>
When describing an enlargement you must state by how much the shape has been enlarged or reduced.
Area of triangle B =
= 0.5 x 2 x 3
= 3 units
Area of triangle A =
= 0.5 x 4 x 6
= 12 units
Scale factor =
=
= 
Hence, the scale factor of dilation is .

The reciprocal of -2/5, expressed as a decimal to the nearest tenth is: -2.5.
<h3>What is the Reciprocal of a Number?</h3>
The reciprocal of a number can be described as the inverse of that number. For example, if a is given as a real number, therefore, the reciprocal of a would be 1/a.
Another example is a/b. The reciprocal of a/b is b/a.
Thus, the reciprocal of -2/5 is -5/2.
Expressing this as a decimal, we would have:
-5/2 = 2.5 (nearest tenth).
Therefore, the reciprocal of -2/5, expressed as a decimal to the nearest tenth is: -2.5.

Expressions can be represented as equations, and vice versa.
A possible situation is as follows:
<em>John is 15 years old, and his age is 3 more than 5 times his brother's age</em>
The equation is given as:
This means that:
- 15 represents John's age
- P represents his brother's age
- 5 and 3 are the constants that relate their ages

Answer:x>7 or x ≤ -3
Solving the 1st inequality
-6x +14 < -28 --------------- (Collect like terms)
-6x < -28 - 14
-6x < - 42 -------------------- (Divide both sides by -6)
Note: If you decide an inequality expression by a negative value, the inequality sign changes)
-6x/-6 > -42/-6
x > 7
Solving the 2nd inequality
9x + 15 ≤ −12 ----------- (Collect like terms)
9x ≤ −12 - 15
9x ≤ −27 ------------------(Divide both sides by 9)
9
9x/9 ≤ −27/9
x ≤ -3
Bring both results together, we get
x>7 or x ≤ -3
The final result is complex (i.e. can't be combined together).
