Divide -3 from both sides leaving you with just m
make sure you switch the inequality sign
44.
The closer it gets to -19, the closer the number goes to 44. It never hits it exactly though, but based off the trend (43.95, 43.995, 43.9995) we can tell that it gets closer to 44 each time.
Hope this helps! (:
ANSWER:
d = 15
The swimmer swam 48 kilometres in 15 days.
STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:
Let d = total no. of days the swimmer swam
Total no. of kilometres swam = 48
Average no. of kilometres swam daily = 3.2
THEREFORE:
3.2d = 48
d = 48 / 3.2
d = 15
