3(n+5) < 3/4(n)

The three is multiplied by n+5. Whenever you see "is equal to/greater/less than," that is where you put your =, >, or < signs. Your variable, "n" represents the number. So three-fourths of the number is the same as multiplying the number by three-fourths.

Answer:

A. This passage is written incorrectly.

Why?

The reason for this is when you have quotation marks, you must put the punctuation inside the quotes.

How should the passage be written?

The passage should be written like this:

"Did you finish your homework?" Forrest asked.

"I have to write a summary of the book after I finish it," Jeff answered.

"I will leave you to it,"said Forrest. "By the way, its an exciting story," he added.

Instead of.....

"Happy Birthday, Rachel"! Lily cried.

its...

"Happy Birthday, Rachel!" Lily cried.

Instead of.....

Rachel replied sadly "Its been a horrible birthday".

its.......

Rachel replied sadly, "Its been a horrible birthday."

Instead of.....

"Why, Rachel? Its not supposed to be, right"? Lily said, surprised.

its..........

"Why, Rachel? Its not supposed to be, right?" Lily said, surprised.

*Note: I am dreadfully sorry for the typos. Hope this helps!!!

Katrina is building a deck. She cuts 3 lengths of wood from a 72-inch board. The first length is inches. The second length is in

kap26 [50]

Rewriting the question, the given lengths that were cut from the board were 30 3/4 inches, 12 1/4 inches, and 16 1/4 inches. To obtain the remaining length of the board, all of the measurements cut are to be added and subtracted from 72 inches. This is shown below:

30 3/4 + 12 1/4 + 16 1/4 = 237/4 = 59.25 inches.

Remaining length of board = 72 - 59.25 = 12.75 inches.

Therefore, there will be 12.75 inches remaining of the board.

A quality-control inspector examined 100 light bulbs and found 7 defective. At this rate, how many defective bulbs would there

anastassius [24]

Answer: 175 defective bulbs.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Keeping on mind that the inspector examined 100 light bulbs and found 7 defective, you can calculate the number of defective bulbs that there would be in a lot of 2500 bulbs as following:

- Let's call the number of defective bulbs that there would be in a lot of 2500 bulbs $x$ .

- Then, you have:

$\frac{100}{7}=\frac{2500}{x}$

- Solve for x:

$x=\frac{2500*7}{100}$

$x=175$

2. Then, there would be 175 defective bulbs in a lot of 2500 bulbs.

Which graph is the solution to this system y-4x=-1y+x=4

natali 33 [55]

First, let's find the x and y intercepts

In the first equation

y - 4x = -1

Put x =0

y= - 1

(0, -1)

Put y=0 and the n solve for x

0 - 4x = -1

-4x = -1

x=0.25

(0.25 , 0)

The points for the first equation is (0, -1 ) and (0.25, 0)

Next is to find the intercts for the second equation

y + x = 4

put x=0

y = 4

(0, 4)

Put y =0

0 + x = 4

x = 4

( 4, 0)

The points for the second equation are;

(0, 4) and (4, 0)

Below is the graph
