Answer:

Letter C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let’s start by subtracting \blue{18}18start color #6495ed, 18, end color #6495ed from both sides of the inequality:

\qquad \begin{aligned} 5a + 18 &< -27\\ 5a + 18 \blue{-18} &< -27\blue{-18}\\ 5a &< -45\\ \end{aligned}

5a+18

5a+18−18

5a​  

<−27

<−27−18

<−45

Hint #22 / 4

To isolate aaa, we need to divide both sides by \green{5}5start color #28ae7b, 5, end color #28ae7b:

\qquad\begin{aligned} 5a &< -45\\ \\ \dfrac{5a}{\green{5}} &< \dfrac{-45}{\green{5}}\\ \\ a &< \purple{-9}\\ \end{aligned}

5a

5

5a

a

<−45

<

5

−45

<−9

​Hint #33 / 4

To graph the inequality a < \purple{-9}a<−9a, is less than, start color #9d38bd, minus, 9, end color #9d38bd, we first draw a circle at \purple{-9}−9start color #9d38bd, minus, 9, end color #9d38bd. This circle divides the number line into two sections: one that contains solutions to the inequality and one that does not.

Since the solution uses a less than sign, the solution does not include the point where a= \purple{-9}a=−9a, equals, start color #9d38bd, minus, 9, end color #9d38bd. So the circle at \purple{-9}−9start color #9d38bd, minus, 9, end color #9d38bd is not filled in.

Because the solution to the inequality says that a < \purple{-9}a<−9a, is less than, start color #9d38bd, minus, 9, end color #9d38bd, this means that solutions are numbers to the left of \purple{-9}−9start color #9d38bd, minus, 9, end color #9d38bd.

Hint #44 / 4

The graph that represents the solution of the inequality a < \purple{-9}a<−9a, is less than, start color #9d38bd, minus, 9, end color #9d38bd is shown in

a < -9

Rearrange:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the greater than sign from both sides of the inequality :

                    5*a+18-(-27)<0  

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

Pulling out like terms :

1.1     Pull out like factors :

  5a + 45  =   5 • (a + 9)  

Equation at the end of step  1  :

Step  2  :

2.1    Divide both sides by  5  

Solve Basic Inequality :

2.2      Subtract  9  from both sides

           a < -9

Answer:

x = 9 m

y = 1 m

Step-by-step explanation:

6/1 = x/1.5

x = 1.5 × 6

x = 9

6/1 = 6/y

6y = 6

y = 1

Can someone please help me with number 6 complete the statement the state the property illustrated by the statement
djyliett [7]

Answer:

Eliminate redundant parentheses

( − 5 ) = 1 − 5 = 1

Divide both sides of the equation by the same term− 5 = 1

-5x/-5 = 1/-5

Simplify

Cancel terms that are in both the numerator and denominator

-5x/-5=1/-5     x=1/-5

Divide the numbers

x=-1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Write an equation for each line in slope-intercept form.
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

y = x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of a line is:

y = mx + b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Looking at the graph, we can see that the line intersects the y-axis at y = 7. So 7 would be our y-intercept.

To find the slope, we would divide the rise of the line by the run. Or m = rise/run. From looking at the graph, we can see that for every 1 unit the line moves in the x-direction, the line moves in the y-direction by 1 unit. Therefore, the rise would be 1 and the run would be 1. 1/1 = 1 so the slope of the line would be 1.

Plugging in 7 for b and 1 for m into the equation for the slope-intercept form, we get:

y = x + 7

So that would be the equation for the line in slope-intercept form.

I hope you find my answer and explanation to be helpful. Happy studying.

Kayra and Mycho sell flowers on weekends to earn extra money.For every 2 flowers that Kayra sells,Mycho sells 5. If Kayra sold 6
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

We know that:

For every two flowers that Kayra sells, Mycho sells 5.

Now, in the question we have:

"If Kayra sold 6 newspapers, how many did Mycho sell?"

There is no information about newspapers, so we can't answer anything.

If we had something like:

"If Kayra sold 6 flowers, how many did Mycho sell?"

Well, in this case, we remember that for every 2 flowers that Kayra sells, Mycho sells 5, then the first thing we need to do is count how many groups of 2 flowers we have in 6 flowers, this is:

6/2 = 3 groups.

And for each one of these, Mycho will sell 5 flowers, then the total number of flowers that Mycho sold is:

3*5 = 15 flowers.
