Let x be the number in the problem. When it states that x is "no more than -10", it means than it is less than or equal to -10. So, we have
x≤-10
In order to cancel out the
on the left and isolate x, we multiply both sides by
(since
·
=1). Thus, we have
x≤-10·
=-15
Therefore, x≤-15
Answer:
8 pencils
Step-by-step explanation:
We can reverse everything that is happening in the problem like this!...
Jeremiah has 20 - 4 pencils = 16 than 2 reverse operation of multiplication which will be division then 16 ÷ 2 = 8
Check work? 8 more than 2 times equals 16 + 4 more that Jeremiah has equals 20 pencils
Answer:
a = -5
Step-by-step explanation:
(5 - 3)/(5 - a)
2/(5 - a)
perpendicular of 2/(5 - a) = -(5 - a)/2
(a - 0)/(1 - 0) = -(5 - a)/2
a/1 = -(5 - a)/2
2a = -5 + a
a = -5
Answer:
slope = y = 1/2
y-intercept = b = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
slope intercept equation:
y = mx + b----->(equation 1)
m is slope
b is y-intercept
y = 1/2x - 3----->(equation 2)
Compare (equation 1) and (equation 1)
slope = y = 1/2
y-intercept = b = -3
The answer is 3. 20/2=10 10-7=3
