Together, Tim and Tom have $2.40. Tim has three times as much as Tom. How much does each have?

1 answer:

8 0

X = how much Tim has
y = how much Tom has
x + y = 2.40
x = 3y
Substitute 3y for x
3y + y = 2.40
4y = 2.40
y = 0.60
Plug in y value into previous equation
x = 3(0.60)
x = 1.80
ANSWERS: Tim has $1.80 and Tom has $0.60

What is the solution to the inequality 7<=-3x-4

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

The nearest option is -3 (negative 3)

So, Option B is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve the inequality $7 \leq -3x-4$

Solving:

Step 1: Switching sides of inequality and reversing the inequality

$-3x-4\geq 7$

Step 2: Adding 4 on both sides

$-3x-4+4\geq 7+4\\-3x\geq 11$

Step 3: Dividing both sides by -3 and reversing the inequality

$\frac{-3x}{-3}\leq \frac{11}{-3} \\x\leq -3.6\\$

The nearest option is -3 (negative 3)

So, Option B is correct.
