Y can realistically be any positive number, since a negative number multiplied by a positive number's product is negative. a negative number will always be less than a positive number, in this case the positive number being 60.
<span>a negative number multiplied by another negative number's product is positive, so as long as the negative numbers are less than -6 (because -10 times -6 is 60, and 60 is not less than 60) y can be negative.</span>
I hope this helps!
Answer:
a) The variable, M represents the amount of fish Ms. Montesinos has
b) The set equation is 11 + 2 = 3 × M - 2
c) 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The given parameters are;
The number of fishes in Ms. Cruz's tank = 11 fishes
The number of fishes Ms, Cruz has after buying two more fishes = 3 × The amount of fish Ms. Montesinos has - 2 fishes
a) Let the variable, M represent the amount of fish Ms. Montesinos has
b) The set up equation is as follows;
11 + 2 = 3 × M - 2
c) From the equation, 11 + 2 = 3 × M - 2, we have;
13 = 3·M - 2
3·M = 13 + 2 = 15
3·M = 15
M = 15/3 = 5
M = 5
The number of fishes Ms. Montesinos has is 17 fishes
