Answer:
-3
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = the number
Then 3x = its triple, and the condition is:
x - 8 < 3x
Subtract x from each side
-8 < 2x
Divide each side by 2
-4 < x
Reverse the inequality
x > -4
The smallest integer greater than -4 is -3.
Check:
-3 - 8 < 3(-3)
-11 < -9
It checks.
7y +8= 9+3y+2y
Combine like terms.
7y+8= 9+5y
Subtract 5y on both sides.
2y+8=9
Subtract 8 on both sides.
2y=1
Your answer is 2y=1
I hope this helps!

to find the slope
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= (7-4)/(9-3)
3/6
1/2
The slope is 1/2
point slope form
y-y1 = m(x-x1)
y-4 = 1/2(x-3)
distribute
y-4 = 1/2x -3/2
add 4 to each side
y = 1/2 x -3/2 + 4
y = 1/2 x -3/2 + 8/2
y = 1/2 x + 5/2
this is in slope intercept form
