Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

divide by -10, which means you need to flip the inequality sign since youre dividing by a negative number

Answer:
yes
Step-by-step explanation:
plug it in 1(-1)+1 and 3(-1)+5
Alright, this is simple. You know what the new number is, 54. You know the original number was decreased by 40%. Your looking for the original number, X. So set up an equation.
x-.4x=54
When X stands by itself, it's perceived to value 1.00
1.00-.4x=54
(1.00-.4 [40%]=.6)
.6x=54
Divide both sides by .6 to eliminate everything else.
.6x/.6=54/.6
You get 90. Your original number was indeed 90.
To check it, we can do 90/40%, or 90/.4=54
~Hope this helps!
Adding both equations
2x=4k
x=2k
y=k
so (2k,k)
