Answer:

The equation: 2n - 3 ≤ -21

The answer to the equation: n ≤ 9

Step-by-step explanation:

How to get the equation:

The difference of symbolizes subtraction. Because we are subtracting twice a number and 3, the first part of the equation can be written as 2n - 3. The n symbolizes the number.

is at most symbolizes a less than or equal to sign. That sign is ≤. And what is it less than or equal to? -21.

Now are equation is 2n - 3 ≤ -21

How to solve it:

2n - 3 ≤ -21

Add 3 to both sides of the equation

2n ≤ 18

Divide both sides of the equation by 2

n ≤ 9

Answer:

The measure of angle 6 is 72.

The measure of angle 7 is 108.

Step-by-step explanation:

Corresponding angles are equal. So angle 1, 3, 5 and 7 are all equal.

If you look at angle 1 and 2, they are adjacent angles, so together they add up to 180. So if you subtract 108 from 180 you get 72... and we already established that all corresponding angles are equal, so if angle 2 is 72 degrees, we can conclude that angle 6 is as well.

Answer:

x = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle has 2 congruent legs and is isosceles with 2 base angles being congruent , then

5x = 3x + 28 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

2x = 28 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 14

Which of the following points IS a solution to the system: y > - 3x + 4 / y > 2x / - y < 7 Selected answer is not corre

Answer:

Solution : Third Option

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step here is to make all the signs uniform. As you can see the third inequality has a less than sign, which we can change to a greater than sign by dividing negative one on either side, making the inequality y > - 7.

$\begin{bmatrix}y>-3x+4\\ y>2x\\ y>-7\end{bmatrix}$

Now take a look at the third option. Of course the y - coordinate, 3, is greater than - 7, so it meets the third requirement ( y > - 7 ). At the same time 3 > 1( 2 ) > 2, and hence it meets the second requirement as well. 3 > - 3( 1 ) + 4 > - 3 + 4 > 1, meeting the first requirement.

Therefore, the third option is a solution to the system.
