Answer:

 3x ≤ -6

Step-by-step explanation:

"At most" means "less than or equal to." If x represents the number, then you have ...

  (three) times (a number) (is at most) negative 6 . . . . . English

      3       ·         x                ≤           -6 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Math

Karyn proofreads 15 pages in 2 hours for $40.
OLEGan [10]
Hi there.

Since she reads 15 pages in 2 hours, all we have to do to find out how much she reads in 1 hour is divide.

15/2 = 7.5

7.5 pages/hour

Same applies to the pay

40/2 = 20

$20/hour

Karyn proofreading rate is 7.5 pages per hour. Karyn receives on average $20 per hour.

Answer:

  B. {16, 19, 20}

Step-by-step explanation:

The <em>triangle inequality</em> requires for any sides a, b, c you must have ...

  a + b > c

  b + c > a

  c + a > b

The net result of those requirements are ...

  • the sum of the two shortest sides must be greater than the longest side
  • the length of the third side lies between the difference and sum of the other two sides

__

If we look at the offered side length choices, we see ...

  A: 8+11 = 19 . . . not > 19; not a triangle

  B: 16+19 = 35 > 20; could be a triangle

  C: 3+4 = 7 . . . not > 8; not a triangle

  D: 5+5 = 10 . . . not > 11; not a triangle

The side lengths {16, 19, 20} could represent the sides of a triangle.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

The version of triangle inequality shown above ensures that a triangle will have non-zero area.

The alternative version of the triangle inequality uses ≥ instead of >. Triangles where a+b=c will look like a line segment--they will have zero area. Many authors disallow this case. (If it were allowed, then {8, 11, 19} would also be a "triangle.")

A line contains the points (4,2) and (0, -1).What is the equation of the line?
Lady bird [3.3K]

Find the slope:

y₂ - y₁ / x₂ - x₁

-1 - 2 / 0 - 4

-3 / -4

3/4

y = mx + b

y = 3/4x + b

Substitute any of the point's coordinate in the equation.

I'll pick (0,-1)

y = 3/4x + b

-1 = 3/4(0) + b

-1 = 0 + b

-1 = b

y-intercept = -1

y-intercept Equation:

y = 3/4x - 1

Point-slope form:

y - 2 = 3/4(x - 4)

Standard form:

-3/4x + y = -1

Does anyone know the answer to this one?
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

\large\boxed{a(x+4)(x-5)=0,\ a\in\mathbb{R}-\{0\}}\\\\\text{for}\ a=1\to\boxed{x^2-x-20=0}

Step-by-step explanation:

\text{If}\ x_1\ \text{and}\ x_2\ \text{are the roots of the quadratic equation}\ ax^2+bx+c=0,\\\text{then}\ ax^2+bx+c=a(x-x_1)(x-x_2).\\\\\text{If}\ x_1\ \text{and}\ x_2\ \text{, then they are the roots of the quadratic equation.}\\\\\text{We have}\ x_1=-4\ \text{and}\ x_2=5.\ \text{Therefore we have the equation:}\\\\a(x-(-4))(x-5)=0\\\\a(x+4)(x-5)=0\qquad\text{for any value of}\ a\ \text{except 0}.

Simplify Using Distributive Property<br> -6(2a + 8)
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

-12a - 48

Step-by-step explanation:

you do -6 times 2a which is -12a then you do -6 times 8 which gives you -48 so you put -12a - 48

since the 48 is a negative we would just put a minus sign instead a plus. If it was a positive 48 we would put a plus sign buts its not so we put a negative.
