Step-by-step explanation:
Jonah sister is 10 years old. Jonah is 8 years younger than twice hos sister age
j = 2s - 8
this is the equation.
You can solve it by substituting in 10 for s, because sister is 10 years old.
Answer:
The expression that is greater is a (b - c)
Step-by-step explanation:
- a < 0 and c > b, this means <u>(by the addition property)</u> that c - c > b - c⇒0 > b - c
so for the product <u>a(b - c) </u>we would have a multiplication of a negative number <em>a</em> and another negative number <em>(b - c)</em>. We know that the result of the <u>multiplication of two negative numbers is a positive number.</u>
Therefore, a (b - c) > 0
- a < 0 and c > b, this means <u>by the addition property</u> that c - b > b - b⇒ c - b > 0
so for <u>a(c - b)</u>, we have the negative number <em>a</em> multiplied by the positive number <em>(c - b). </em>We know that the result of the <u>multiplication of a negative number by a positive number is negative. </u>
<u>Therefore a (c - b) < 0</u>
Thus, the expression that is greater is the positive one which is a (b - c)
Here are the step for solving this:
1. 3y + 5 > 23
-5 -5
3y/3 > 18/3
y > 6
In words what you are doing is getting y by itself on one side. Subtract the 5 to undo the adding of 5 first. Then, divide both sides by 3.
