Yes they are equivalent because when you multiply by 10, you move the decimal place one spot to the right.
The answer to this problem is 23.5 . You are going to start by multiplying whats inside the paranthesis’s and then you’re going to calulate the sum and then difference and you should be left with 23.5
The number g is 7
24-10 = 14
14/2=6
x + 17 ≥ -3
Isolate the x. Subtract 17 from both sides
x + 17 (-17) ≥ - 3 (-17)
x ≥ -3 - 17
x ≥ -20

x ≥ -20 is your answer
