the computer loses 50%, percent of its value each year. (Answer)
Answer:
x < -5
Step-by-step explanation:
Distribute 4 to x and 10: 4x + 40 < 20
Subtract 40 from both sides: 4x < -20
Divide by 4: x < -5

and is all you can simplify from it.
so... all we did, was rationaliize it, namely, "getting rid of the pesky radical at the bottom", we do so by simply multiplying it by something that will raise the radicand, to the same degree as the root, thus the radicand comes out.
The number of shelves stephen can make is approximately 27
<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>
Given that Stephen makes wooden shelves for his room
Stephen wants to make the shelves 3/4 foot long
He starts with a board that is 20 feet long
To find: number of shelves he can make
So the number of shelves stephen can make can make is found out by dividing 20 feet long board by 3/4 foot long


So the number of shelves stephen can make is approximately 27
Answer/Step-by-step explanation:
a. Using two points on the line (0, 2) and (4, 12), find the gradient:
Gradient = ∆y/∆x = (12 - 2) / (4 - 0) = 10/4 = 2.5
Gradient = 2.5
b. The gradient, 2.5, represents the unit rate. That is, the volume of the oil in the tank per second.
i.e. 2.5 litres per second
c. The value, L = 2 represents the y-intercept, which is the starting value or initial volume of oil in the tank at 0 secs.
