You have to do 10•10•10•10•10 (multiply 10, 5 times). Once you multiply 10 five times, you end up with an answer of 100,000 pencils in each box. Then since you have 6 boxes of pencils you have to multiply 100,000•6, which equals 600,000 pencils total.

Answer: -5 < x < 2</h3>
Explanation:
The expression -2x means -2 times x. To undo this, we divide all parts of the inequality by -2. Dividing by a negative number will flip the inequality sign. We go from "less than" to "greater than"
-4 < -2x < 10
-4/(-2) > x > 10/(-2) .... inequality signs flip
2 > x > -5
-5 < x < 2
This unknown number x is between -5 and 2. It cannot equal -5. It cannot equal 2.
Answer:
x + y <u>></u> 15
10x + 5y <u><</u> 100
we will put it in terms of y
y <u>></u> 15 - x
and
5y <u><</u> 100 - 10x
y <u><</u> 20 - 2x
