No, you got the inequalities the wrong way.
In negative numbers, it is how much lower it is than 0. For example, -22 is 22 less than 0. And -2 is 2 less than 0. Here, -22 is actually less than -2 because it is farther below 0 than -2.
You can understand this better if you graph it on a number line.
So, -12 >-15. (-15 is 3 less than -12).
-1/3 >-1.
-2>-21.

URGENT 15 POINTS!!!!What is the solution of the system?

ohaa [14]

The elimination method is a sufficient way to solve problems.

2x+y= 20
6x-5y=12

Add 5y to the one equation.

2x+6y= 20
6x= 12

Subtract 2x from both sides.

6y= 20
4x= 12

Divide 6 by 20.
y= 3.3

Divide 4 by 12.
x= 3

I hope this helped you!

Brainliest answer is appreciated!

The functions f(x) and g(x) are described below: f(x) = 7x + 9 g(x) = 7x −4 The graph of g(x) is obtained by shifting down the g

Slav-nsk [51]

Correct Answer:
Option A

Solution:

f(x) = 7x + 9
g(x) = 7x - 4

We can re-write g(x) as:

g(x) = 7x + 9 - 13

Since 7x+9 is equal to f(x), we can write:

g(x) = f(x) - 13

This relation shows that g(x) is obtained by shifting f(x) 13 units vertically down. So the correct answer is option A.

What two numbers add to 13 but multiply to negative 12?

Phoenix [80]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

13.8654599313 and -0.8654599313

Step-by-step explanation:

If one of the numbers is x, then the other is 13-x, and their product is ...

x(13 -x) = -12

x^2 -13x = 12 . . . . multiply by -1 and simplify

x^2 -13x +6.5^2 = 12 +6.5^2 . . . . complete the square

(x -6.5)^2 = 54.25

x -6.5 = √54.25

x = 6.5 +√54.25 ≈ 13.8654599313

and the other number is ...

13 -x = 13 -13.8654599313 = -0.8654599313

The two numbers are 13.8654599313 and -0.8654599313.
