Divide both sides by -5 to get x on its own. This gives:
x < -7

I think the previous answer is incorrect as they divided by -7 instead of -5 and got the opposite answer, but you need to divide by -5, as there is no -7, that is the answer.

Hope this helps :)

You bike for 2 hours at a speed no faster than 17.6 mph. Write an inequality that represents the possible number of miles you bi

Whitepunk [10]

Total no. of hours you spent biking = 2 hours
the speed at which you rode your bike ≤ 17.6 mph
Now,
We have,
$speed = \frac{distance}{time}$

$17.6 = \frac{distance}{2}$

$17.6 *2= distance$

$35.2=distance$

So, you for given conditions, you can't travel more then 35.3 miles

So, the inequality for the given circumstances is:
x ≤ 35.2

The sun produces 3.9 ⋅ 10 to the 33th power ergs of radiant energy per second. How many ergs of radiant energy does the sun prod

arlik [135]

So the sun produces 3.9x10³³/ second

Using this ratio (3.9x10³³/ second) we can use the porpotions to calculate time taken (T) to produce 1.55x10⁷.

$\frac{3.9(10^3) ergs}{1 second} = \frac{1.55(10^7)ergs}{T}$

Then isolate T and find the time

$\frac{T3.9(10^3)ergs}{1 second} = {1.55(10^7)ergs$
$T3.9(10^3)ergs = ({1.55(10^7)ergs)seconds$
$T = \frac{(1.55(10^7)ergs)seconds}{3.9(10^3)ergs}$
$T = \frac{(1.55(10^7)seconds}{3.9(10^3)}$
$T = \frac{1.55}{3.9}(10^4)seconds$
$T = 0.397(10^4)seconds$
$T = 3.97(10^-^1)(10^4)seconds$
$T = 3.97(10^3)seconds$

Thus it took 3.97x10³ seconds for 1.55x10⁷. of ergs to be produced
Hope that helped and if it did, a Brainliest rating would be much appreciated

Alexis, Becca, and Cindy do volunteer work at Adopt-a-Pet Animal Shelter. They worked a total of 285 hours at the shelter last s

swat32

Alexis worked for 59 hours, Becca worked for 74 hours and Cindy worked for 152 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Total hours worked by three of them = 285 hours

Let,

x represent the hours of Alexis.

y represent the hours of Becca.

z represent the hours of Cindy.

According to given statement;

x+y+z=285 Eqn 1

Alexis worked 15 hours less than Becca.

x = y-15 Eqn 2

z = 2y+4 Eqn 3

Putting value of x and z from Eqn 2 and 3 in Eqn 1

$(y-15)+y+(2y+4)=285\\y-15+y+2y+4=285\\4y-11=285\\4y=285+11\\4y=296$

Dividing both sides by 4

$\frac{4y}{4}=\frac{296}{4}\\y=74$

Putting y=74 in Eqn 2

$x=74-15\\x=59$

Putting y=74 in Eqn 3

$z=2(74)+4\\z=148+4\\z=152$

Alexis worked for 59 hours, Becca worked for 74 hours and Cindy worked for 152 hours.
