The answer is
The side length of the square Kevin cuts is slightly less than the length the instructor required
≥-4
Pretend the greater than or equal to sign is an equal sign, we will substitute it back in later.
x/2 = -4
Multiply both sides by 2 to get x alone
x = -8
Substitute the greater than or equal to sign back in and voila!
x≥-8
Answer:
50 nickels, 20 quarters.
Step-by-step explanation:
System of equations (q = # of quarters, n = # of nickels):
<em>q + n = 70, 0.25q + 0.05n = 7.50</em>
the first equation can be changed to q = 70 - n, so we are able to <em>substitute q with 70 - n</em>.
So, it will look like <em>0.25*70 - 0.25n + 0.05n = 7.50</em>. This can be simplified to <em>0.2n = 10</em>, which means that n = 50.
Knowing that we can solve <em>q + 50 = 70</em>, which means that q = 20.
Answer:
840cm^3
Step-by-step explanation:
[12*15-(12-8)*(15-5)]*6
=[180-40]*6
=140*6
=840cm^3
