Answer:

x > -1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's start with the left side of the equation.

1) multiply 0.2(x + 20). You will get 0.2x+4

So you have 0.2x+4-3

Simplify that, you will have 0.2x+1

Now, we need to isolate the variable (bring all terms with "x" to one side), and move everything else to another side. Remember that when you bring something to the other side, you must change the sign in front of the term (for example, bringing 2x to another side would change it to -2x. another example is if you were to bring -2 to another side, you would have to change it to 2.)

2) 0.2x+6.2x>-7-1 Moved like terms to one side.

6.4x>-8 I combined the terms here!

x > -1.25 Simplified!

Let me know if you need anything else :)

Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

17/49 or about 34.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

George has 85 cards out of 245 cards that are pitchers. Whever you hear "out of", it means to divide.

85/245 are pitchers.

you can simplify since 5 fits in both of those numbers

5*17=85

5*49=245

So, 17/49 or about 34.7%

Dairy farmers are aware there is often a linear relationship between the age, in years, of a dairy cow and the amount of milk pr

Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

B. A cow of 5 years is predicted to produce 5.5 more gallons per week.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $M(a) = 40.8-1.1\cdot a$ , where $a$ is the age of the dairy cow, measured in years, and $M(a)$ is the predicted milk production, measured in gallons per week.

Besides, we consider $a_{1}$ and $a_{2}$ , such that $a_{1}\ne a_{2}$ , we define the difference between predicted milk productions ( $\Delta M$ ) below:
