Step-by-step explanation:
a^2 + 2(b - 6) - 17. a = -7 b = 2
= (-7)^2 - 2(2 - 6) - 17
= 49 - 4 + 12 - 17
= 40

Answer: Choice C</h3>
{x | x < -12 or x > -6}
=========================================================
Explanation:
Let's solve the first inequality for x.
(-2/3)x > 8
-2x > 8*3
-2x > 24
x < 24/(-2)
x < -12
The inequality sign flips when we divide both sides by a negative value.
Let's do the same for the second inequality.
(-2/3)x < 4
-2x < 4*3
-2x < 12
x > 12/(-2)
x > -6
The conclusion of each section is that x < -12 or x > -6 which points us to <u>choice C</u> as the final answer.
Side note: The intervals x < -12 and x > -6 do not overlap in any way. There's a gap between the two pieces. We consider these intervals to be disjoint. The number line graph is below.
0.6 would be the same as $0.60 AKA 60 cents and 0.06 would be the same as 6 cents
