Reduce any fractions to lowest terms. Don't round your answer, and don't use mixed fractions.
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

30/11 > p

Step-by-step explanation:

-7p-4>26p-94

Add 7p to each side

-7p+7p-4>26p+7p-94

-4 > 33p -94

Add 94 to each side

-4+94 > 33p-94+94

90 > 33p

Divide each side by 33

90/33 > 33p/33

30/11 > p

The length of the rectangle is 4cm less than its width . what are the dimensions of the rectangle if its area is 140
melomori [17]
Let the width of the rectangle be x
Then length =x-4
Area=x(x-4)=140
x²-4x=140
x²-4x-140=0
x²-14x+10x-140=0
x(x-14)+10(x-14)=0
(x-14)(x+10)=0
Therefore,length=14 cm and  width=10 cm

A quality of control inspector found that 1.3% of 1500 computers inspected were defective. How many computers were defective?
Valentin [98]
Okay to find percentages of things you have to take that original value (1500) and multuply it by the percentage. But when you multiply you put the percentage into a decimal and move it over to the right side two decimal places to the left. For example 10.0% would mean you need to multiply by 0.10 okay?

So for this problem you need to do 1500 *.013 and you get 19.5 computers.
