-2a - 4 > -8
add 4 to both sides

-2a - 4 + 4 > -8 + 4
-2a > -4

divide both sides by -2 AND change the direction of the sign because we're dividing by a negative

a < 2

ANSWER: a < 2

Hope this helps! :)

Hey there!

Firstly, we have to “add” the number “4” on each of your sides

Like: -2a -4 + 4> -8 +4
Cancel: -4 + 4 because it will give you “0”
Keep: -8+4 because it gives you “-4” and we have paid it off with -2a

Like: -2a>-4

Divide each of the sides by “-2”

Like: -2a/2 > -4/-2

Cancel: -2a/2 because it gives us “1”

Keep: -4/-2 because that’ll give us the answer on the left side of the inequality

So, a < 2 would be your answer

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day

Verify the identity. cot x / 1 + csc x = csc x - 1 / cot x
svetlana [45]

Step-by-step explanation:

cot x / (1 + csc x)

Multiply by conjugate:

cot x / (1 + csc x) × (1 − csc x) / (1 − csc x)

Distribute the denominator:

cot x (1 − csc x) / (1 − csc²x)

Use Pythagorean identity:

cot x (1 − csc x) / (-cot²x)

Divide:

(csc x − 1) / cot x

Write an equation of the line containing the point (3,5) and perpendicular to the line 4x-3y=5
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to write the equation of the line perpendicular to the given line, we first have to know what the slope of the given line is, and there's no way to tell by looking at it in its current form, which is standard. We need to solve that equation for y to determine the slope of that line. Solving for y:

-3y=-4x+5 and

3y = 4x - 5 (just change all the signs so our y term isn't negative anymore...yes, you're "allowed" to do that!) and

y=\frac{4}{3}x-\frac{5}{3} So we can see now that the slope of this line is 4/3. That means that the perpendicular slope is -3/4. Passing through the given point (3, 5):

y-5=-\frac{3}{4}(x-3)* and

y-5=-\frac{3}{4}x+\frac{9}{4} and

y=-\frac{3}{4}x+\frac{9}{4}+\frac{20}{4} so

y=-\frac{3}{4}x+\frac{29}{4}** and, in standard form:

4y = -3x + 29 and

3x + 4y = 29***

* : point-slope form

** : slope-intercept form

*** : standard form

there were 64 basketball games during the NCAA tournament 16 of those games were decided by 3 points or less what percentage of
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use a proportion to answer this question:

64 represent the 100% of the games

so:

x : 100 = 16 : 64

x = (16*100)/64 = 1600/64 = 25%

Art and his friends spent $62 at the movies. Admission tickets cost $12 apiece, and a bucket of popcorn costs $7. Which equation
Korvikt [17]

The right answer is Option B: 7p+12t=62

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Amount spent by Art and his friends = $62

Cost of one ticket = $12

Cost of t tickets = 12t

Cost of one bucket of popcorn = $7

Cost of p buckets of popcorn =7p

According to given statement;

7p+12t=62

7p+12t=62 represents the number of tickets bought, t, and the number of buckets of popcorn bought, p.

The right answer is Option B: 7p+12t=62
