Answer:

$Add \: \frac{1}{6} \: to \: both \: sides$

Step-by-step explanation:

$- 5x - \frac{1}{6} \geqslant \frac{3}{2} \\ \Leftrightarrow - 5x - \frac{1}{6} + \frac{1}{6} \geqslant \frac{3}{2} + \frac{1}{6} \\ \Leftrightarrow - 5x \geqslant \frac{5}{3} \\ \Leftrightarrow x \leqslant - \frac{1}{3}$

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve for x.

−3x+2y=−10

Step 1: Add -2y to both sides.

−3x+2y+−2y=−10+−2y

−3x=−2y−10

Step 2: Divide both sides by -3.

−3x /−3 = −2y−10 −3

x= 2 /3 y+ 10 /3

Answer:

x= 2 /3 y+ 10 /3

While evan and sam are fishing 12kms from shore, their boat springs a leak, and water comes in at a constant rate of 3 gallons p

aev [14]

Based on the calculations, the slowest rate is equal to 4 gallons per minute.

<u>Given the following data:</u>

Distance from shore = 12 km.

In-rate = 3 gallons per minute.

Rowing rate = 24 km per hour.

<h3>How to calculate the slowest rate.</h3>

Let's assume the boat would sink if it takes in more than 20 gallons of water.

<u>Conversion:</u>

24 km/h to km/min = $\frac{24 }{60}$ = 0.4 km/min.

Translating the word problem into an algebraic expression, we have;

$\frac{12}{0.4} \times 3 - \frac{12}{0.4} \times x\geq 30\\\\\frac{36}{0.4}-\frac{12x}{0.4} \geq 30\\\\90-\frac{12x}{0.4} \geq 30\\\\\frac{12x}{0.4} \geq90+30\\\\\frac{12x}{0.4} \geq120\\\\12x \geq120 \times 0.4\\\\12x \geq 48\\\\x\geq 4$

Therefore, the slowest rate is equal to 4 gallons per minute.

Tamiku [17]

So, from 10 minutes down to 2 minutes, the difference is 8 minutes.

if we take 10 to be the 100%, what is 8 off of it in percentage?

$\bf \begin{array}{ccll}
amount&\%\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
10&100\\
8&x
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{10}{8}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies x=\cfrac{8\cdot 100}{10}$
