Let

x-------> the number

we know that

1) The phrase “the difference of a number and  5” can be written as

(x-5)

2) The phrase “twice the difference of a number and  5” can be written as

2*(x-5)

therefore

<u>the answer is the option</u>

1. 2(x-5)

Solving this inequality is similar to solving a regular equation. The only thing you need to worry about with inequalities is that when you are dividing or multiplying by a negative number, you must flip the inequality sign. You won't have to worry about that here!

You are told x + 3/4 ≥ -1/3. Isolate the x by subtracting 3/4 from both sides. To subtract fractions, find a common denominator on both fractions, subtract the numerators, put the difference over the common denominator, and simplify if needed. The common denominator between \frac{3}{4} and - \frac{1}{3} is 12.
1) To make the denominator of \frac{3}{4}, 12, multiply it by 3/3 (aka 1):
\frac{3}{4} \times  \frac{3}{3} =  \frac{9}{12}

2) To make the denominator of - \frac{1}{3}, 12, multiply it by 4/4:
- \frac{1}{3} \times \frac{4}{4} = -\frac{4}{12}

3) Subtract the fractions to find the inequality for x:
x + \frac{3}{4}  \geq - \frac{1}{3}\\&#10;x + \frac{9}{12}  \geq -\frac{4}{12}\\&#10;x  \geq -\frac{4}{12} - \frac{9}{12} \\&#10;x  \geq  -\frac{13}{12}

You answer is x ≥ -13/12, or if you want to make -13/12 a mixed number, x ≥ -1 \frac{1}{12}.

In a circle graph, what percent would be represented by a 25° angle? (round to nearest whole number if needed)
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

A) 7%

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 360 degrees in a circle.  Thus, a 25 degree sector would make up 25/360 of the circle.  25/360 can be simplified to .06944444.  This rounds to .07, which is 7%.
