Solve the inequality -5 -12 > -6x -4

2 answers:

6 0

Hello there!

-5-12 > -6x-4

Combine like terms to make it easier.

-17 > -6x-4

Then add 4 to both sides.

-17 (+4) > -6x (+4)

-17+4 > -6x

-13 > -6x

Careful: When multiplying or dividing by a negative number, FLIP the inequality sign!

Another careful: A negative times/divided by another negative makes a positive!

NO: 13/6 > x

YES: 13/6 < x

Answer:

X > 13/6 or 13/6 < x

It's preferred that the variable (letter) goes first, but they're both (technically) correct. :)

I hope this helped! :)

First, we have to understand the slope-intercept form.

$\large \boxed{y = mx + b}$

A linear function/equation has three forms and the slope-intercept is one of the form. It is also commonly used in Function topic while the other two forms are commonly used in Analytic Geometry.

In the slope-intercept form, the m-term represents the slope while b-term represents the y-intercept of a graph.

Which equation represents a linear function that has a slope of 5 and a y-intercept of -6.

As you notice the bold, italic and underlined words in the question that I quoted or rewrote. I've just explained that the slope is m-term and y-intercept is b-term.

Therefore, substitute m = 5 and b = -6 in the equation.

$\large{y = mx + b \longrightarrow \bold{y = 5x + ( - 6)}} \\ \large \boxed{ \tt{ \purple{y = 5x - 6}}}$

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions regarding the linear function, don't hestitate to ask. Good luck with your assignment and have a nice day!

Find the slope of a ski run that descends 15 feet for every horizontal change of 24 feet.

Serhud [2]

A common way of remembering slope is "Rise over Run," meaning vertical change divided by horizontal change. For your question that would be -15 (because it's going down) divided by 24 => -15/24 => -5/8
Final answer:
The slope is -5/8 feet.
Hope I helped :)

Hooke's Law. The distance d when a spring is stretched by a hanging object varies directly as the weight w of the object. If the

algol [13]

The distance is 52.5 cm when weight is 7kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance is 15 cm when weight is 2 kg

We need to find the distance d when weight is 7 kg

Since distance and weight varies directly so,

$\frac{15}{2}=\frac{d}{7}$

Solving the above expression:

$\frac{15}{2}=\frac{d}{7}\\Cross\,\,multiply\\15*7=d*2\\105=d*2\\d=\frac{105}{2}\\d=52.5$

So, The distance is 52.5 cm when weight is 7kg
