What is the meaning of the statement -30 < -5 ?

1 answer:

5 0

The symbol "<" without quotes means "less than". The number on the left is less than or smaller than the number on the right. Think of an alligator mouth representing this symbol. The mouth will face the larger amount because the alligator is greedy and wants the most food.

Another example: 5 < 8 which says "5 is less than 8" or "5 is smaller than 8". Going back to the alligator example, the alligator will want 8 pieces of food rather than 5 since it's greedy.

Based on that, the final answer is choice A

Can you solve 4 + 2/3 x = -5 in fraction form?

guapka [62]

Answer:

$\frac{-27}{2} = (-13)(\frac{1}{2})$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is 4 + 2/3 x = -5

Taking variable on one side and constants on other side, we get

$-9 = (\frac{2}{3})(x)$

$x = (\frac{3}{2})(-9) = \frac{-27}{2} = (-13)(\frac{1}{2}) = -13.5$

The number in decimal form is given by -13.5

The number in fraction form is given as $\frac{-27}{2} = (-13)(\frac{1}{2})$

what are the factors of 47 (cuz im STUPID and i dont feel like doing this cuz im working on geogrophy)

Hitman42 [59]

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

The factors are the numbers you multiply to get 47. And they can't be fractions or numbers with fractions. They have to be integers (numbers without fractions).

So far, we see that we can multiply 1 and 47 to get 47. To see if there are any more, we see what numbers 1-10 we can divide by.

We cannot divide by 2 because 47 is odd.

We cannot divide by 3 because it gives us 15.6666...

We can't divide by 4 because 47 is odd.

We can't divide by 5 because 47 does not have a 5 or 0 in the ones place.

We can't divide by 6 because 47 is odd.

We can't divide by 7 because it gives us 6.714285....

We can't divide by 8 because 47 is odd.

We can't divide by 9 because it gives us 5.2222

And we obviously can't divide it by 10.

Therefore, the factors of 47 are 1 and 47. A number whose only factors are 1 and itself is called a prime number.

I hope that this helps! Have a wonderful day! :D

In the inequality 1/ 2 x - 6 > 10, x represents Todd's age. Which phrase most accurately describes Todd's age? A) Todd is old

Tom [10]

Answer:

Option A) Todd is older than 32

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$\frac{1}{2}x-6>10$

Solve for x

Adds 6 both sides

$\frac{1}{2}x>10+6\\\\\frac{1}{2}x>16$

Multiply by 2 both sides

$x>32$

Todd's age is greater than 32

therefore

Todd is older than 32
