Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The key to answering this is to know that the only time you'll change the direction of the sign is when you multiply or divide by a negative number.
-46 - 8x > 22
-8x > 22 + 46
-8x > 68
x < 68/-8 (we divided by -8 so the inequality changed direction)
x < -17/2
L= length= 1 1/2 yards
A= area= 3 1/2 yards^2
w= width
Area= length * width
plug in numbers you know
3 1/2= (1 1/2)(w)
convert to improper fractions
(3*2+1)/2= ((1*2+1)/2)(w)
7/2= 3/2w
divide both sides by 3/2
7/2 ÷ 3/2= w
to divide fractions, multiply by the reciprocal/inverse of 3/2
7/2 * 2/3= w
(7*2)/(2*3)= w
14/6= w
reduce by 2
7/3= width as improper fraction
OR
2 1/3= width as mixed fraction
ANSWER: The width should be 2 1/3 yards wide (or 7/3 yards wide).

Given:
Charlie bought a new computer for $450 with his credit card.
He plans to pay the minimum payment of $25 per month.
To find:
The rate of change.
Solution:
Let y be the remaining amount of loan after x months.
Initial amount of loan = $450
Payment of one month = $25
Payment of x months = $25x
Now,
Remining amount = Initial amount of loan - Payment of x months
...(i)
The slope intercept form is
...(ii)
where, m is slope and b is y-intercept.
From (i) and (ii), we get
Therefore, the rate of change is -25 dollars.
