Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
9 - x ≤17
At some point you are going to have to turn the equation around. This would not normally be your first step, but this time it is better to start with it.
We won't do it directly. The best way to do it is to add x to both sides before you do anything else. This is not the usual way to solve these equations, but it's a good time to learn.
Inequality Rule: you must always solve for x. If it is -x then you are going to have to make an adjustment to get the x to be positive.
9 - x ≤ 17 Add x to both sides
9 - x+x ≤ 17 + x Combine
9 ≤ 17 + x Subtract 17 from both sides.
9 - 17 ≤ 17 - 17 + x
8 ≤ x
Notice that you have effectively changed the ≤ sign around, not because you have, but because the x reads differently now. It started out 9 - x ≤ 17 and when you finish solving it you get 8 is less than or equal to x. Entirely different.
2 3/4 divided by 1/4
is
2 3/4 multiplied by 4/1
which is (2+3/4)*4 = 2*4 + 3/4*4 = 8+3 =<em>11</em>
The answer is " what if the electric bill increases?"
Answer:
You cant, because Ben is WRONG, unless you made a typo while writing the question
Step-by-step explanation:
If you subsitute N for 5, then the equation would be 7 x 5 = 45. However, this is not true. The correct equation is 7 x 5 = 35, so Ben is wrong UNLESS you made a typo while writing the question.
Hope this helped! If it did, please mark it brainliest! It would help a lot! :D
(2x+3y)+(7x-3y)
First, group like terms together, so (2x+7x) + (3y-3y). Then simplify within the parentheses. 2x+7x = 9x and 3y-3y = 0, so you have 9x, which cannot be simplified any further. The answer is 9x.
