1. x is less then or equal to -1 or x is greater then or equal to 5.
2. x is greater then -4 and x is less than or equal to -1
The reason it is equal to or not is because above the original number there is a dot. If it is not filled in, it is considered open. This would leave it as greater than or less than. If it were filled in, it would be considered closed. Leaving it as greater than or equal to or less than or equal to.
Answer:
ummm I think the answer is Carrot
Answer:
The opposite of a number is its additive inverse. The sum of a number and its opposite is zero. (This is sometimes called the property of opposites ). a+(−a)=0.
Let the steaks = X and the salmon = y.
Set up two equations:
15x + 18y = 559.81
19x + 9y = 583.66
Now using the elimination method:
Multiply the second equation by -2, then add the equations together.
(15x+18y=559.81)
−2(19x+9y=583.66)
Becomes:
15x+18y=559.81
−38x−18y=−1167.32
Add these equations to eliminate y:
−23x=−607.51
Divide both sides by -23 to solve for x:
x= -607.51 = -23 = 26.413478
Now you have the cost for a steak.
To solve for the cost of the salmon, replace x with the value in the first equation and solve for y.
15(26.413478) + 18y = 559.91
396.202174 + 18y = 559.81
Subtract 396.202174 from both sides:
18y = 163.607826
Divide both sides by 18:
y = 163.607826 / 18
y = 9.089324
Round both x and Y to the nearest cent:
X (Steaks) =$26.41
Y (Salmon) = $9.09
