Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

The following inequalities can be translated and matched as follows:

1. A number is larger than 5:

Let that number be x. Numbers that are larger than 5 are 6, 7, 8 and so on. Therefore, the number that is larger is greater than 5. This can be represented in the symbolic form as:

x > 5

2. A number is below 5:

Numbers that are below 5 are 4, 3, 2 and so on. Therefore, we can say the number, x, is less than 5. This can be written in symbolic form as:

x < 5

3. A number is not less than 5:

A number that is not less than 5 could equal 5 or any other number that is larger than 5. Therefore, we can say the number, x, equals 5 or greater than 5. This can be written as:

x ≥ 5

4. A number is at most 5:

At most 5, means the number, x, is either 5 or less than 5. This can be written as:

x ≤ 5

OleMash [197]
<span>The solution to the equation 2/3 A= -24 is the coordinate of point A.

2/3 A = -24
A = -24 / 2/3
A = -24 * 3/2
A = -72/2
A = -36

The solution to the equation 20=-b/0.5 is the coordinate of point B

20 = -b/0.5
20 * 0.5 = -b
10 = -b
10/-1 = -b/-1
-10 = b

A = -36 and B = -10

The profit a company earns every month depends of the amount of product sold, p, for $855 each and the amount spent in rent, uti
3241004551 [841]
Profit = (selling price x number of units) - expenses in this case, the selling price is $855, number of units is 250, and the expenses are $6,780 So, Profit = ($855 x 250) - $6,780 = $206,970 That number times 15% (decimal = 0.15) will be the salary of the CEO So, $206,970 x 0.15 = $31,045.50

Ten less than five times a number is less than six times the number decreased by eight
Luden [163]

10 - 5x < 6x - 8

We can treat this inequality like a normal algebraic equation.

<em><u>Add 5x to both sides</u></em>

10 < 11x - 8

<em><u>Add 8 to both sides</u></em>

18 < 11x

<em><u>Divide both sides by 11</u></em>

1.64 < x

X is greater than the value 1.64.

Let's plug the number 2 into each value of x to verify.

10 - 5x < 6x - 8

10 - 5*2) < (6 * 2) - 8

10 - 10 < 12 - 8

0 < 4

It's correct.

Now let's plug 1, which is less than 1.64.

10 - 5x < 6x - 8

10 - 5 < 6 - 8

5 < -2

This is not correct, which means that our answer was correct.
