n > -6 is the inequality for 16 plus 5 times a number is more than the number minus 8

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given statement is:

16 plus 5 times a number is more than the number minus 8

We have to write a inequality

From given statement,

16 plus 5 times a number is more than the number minus 8

Let the number be "n"

Therefore,

16 plus 5 times "n" is more than "n" minus 8

Here, "plus" means addition and "minus" means subtraction and "times" means multiplication

Thus the statement is translated into inequality as:

16 + 5n >n-8

Simplify the inequality

16 + 5n >n-8\\\\\mathrm{Subtract\:}16\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}\\\\16 + 5n -16 > n - 8 -16\\\\5n >n-24\\\\\mathrm{Subtract\:}n\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}\\\\5n-n>n-24-n\\\\\mathrm{Simplify}\\\\4n>-24\\\\\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}4\\\\\frac{4n}{4}>\frac{-24}{4}\\\\n>-6

Thus the soultion is n > -6

Compare adding unlike fractions and adding like fractions
muminat

Answer:

We just add numerators and rewrite denominator.

Adding unlike dominators:

We need to find the same denominators. You need to find the least common multiple (LCM) of the two denominators.

Step-by-step explanation:

You mean unlike denominators and like denominators.

Adding like dominators: We just add numerators and rewrite denominator :

Example : \frac{1}{4} +\frac{2}{4}=\frac{1+2}{4}  =\frac{3}{4}

Adding unlike dominators:

We need to find the same denominators. You need to find the least common multiple (LCM) of the two denominators.

For example :

\frac{1}{5}+\frac{3}{4}

LCM for 5 and 4 is 20 : Now, divide by 5 and multiply by 1 for first fraction. 20 divide by 4 and multiply by 3 :

\frac{1*4}{20} +\frac{3*5}{20}=\frac{4}{20} +\frac{15}{20}=\frac{19}{20}

anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

y = 3x + 15

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Find the reciprocal of the slope and change signs: -3

2. y = 3x + b

3. Plug in x and y --> b = 15

4. Make your equation using y = mx + b: y = 3x + 15
