Step-by-step explanation:

$3x+\frac{5}{8}\geq 4x-\frac{1}{2}$

Subtract 5/8 on both sides

To subtract 5/8 we make the denominators same

$3x\geq 4x-\frac{1*4}{2*4}-\frac{5}{8}$

Addition or Subtraction property of order is used

$3x\geq 4x-\frac{9}{8}$

Subtract 4x on both sides

Addition or Subtraction property of order is used

$-x\geq -\frac{9}{8}$

Now divide both sides by -1

Multiplication or Division property of order is used

$\frac{-x}{-1} \geq \frac{-\frac{9}{8}}{-1}$

Multiplication or Division property of order is used

$x\leq \frac{9}{8}$

Sal wants to know if he has enough money to buy 4 gallons of gas. If he has $15, and each gallon of gas costs $3.29, which is a

velikii [3]

Answer:

Remember that when you are making stimates, you are going to roiund to the nearest dollar. Since $3.29 is closer to 3 dollars than four dollars, Sam should use the 3 dollars figure to estimate if he can afford 4 gallons of gas.

$3+$3+$3+$3=$12

The actual value is , so $3 per gallon is indeed a god estimate.

We can conclude that the correct answer is: $3 + $3 + $3 + $3 = 12, so Sal can afford the gas.

Graph the linear equation. Find the three points that solve the equation then plot on the graph. -y=-x+1

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step will be to make y the subject of the formula, by multiplying both sides of the equation by -1.

y = x - 1

This is simply the equation of a line with a slope of 1 and y-intercept (0,-1)

To determine the three points that solve the equation, we can let x be;

0, 1, 2

When x =0, y = 0-1 = -1

When x = 1, y = 1-1 = 0

When x = 2, y = 2 - 1 = 1

Therefore, we have the following three sets of points that can be used to graph the given linear equation;

(0, -1)

(1, 0)

(2, 1)
