1. Any number above 13 works. Why? Because 20-7=13, and to be greater than 20, you must add a number larger than 13.
Examples: 14+7 > 20, 30+7 > 20, 100+7 > 20
2. Any number below 25/3 (which is also 8.3 with a repeating 3) works. Why? Because 25/3=8.3 with a repeating 3, and to remain less than 25, you must multiply by a number less than 8.3 with a repeating 3.
Examples: 3(8) < 25, 3(5) < 25, 3(0) < 25
3. 4 buses. 1 bus will hold 60 students, 2 will hold 120, 3 will hold 180, and 4 will hold 240. The question is trying to trick you into putting now 3.3333333333... buses because that's what 200/60 is, but there is no such thing as a third of a bus. So you need at least 4 buses. (There will be an extra 40 spaces for passengers on the 4th bus, but that is okay.)
To find this answer I did 200/60 and got 3.3 with a repeating 3. You must round to the higher whole number. Rounding down to 3 buses leaves you with 20 students without a bus.
4. 19 boxes. 18 boxes will only hold 288 candies. The question is trying to trick you into putting down 18.75 boxes because that's what 300/16 is, but there is no such thing as 75% of a box. So you need at least 19 boxes. (There will be an extra 4 spaces for candies in the 19th box, but that is okay.)
To find this answer I did 300/16 and got 18.75. You must round to the higher whole <span>number. Rounding down to 18 boxes leaves you with 12 candies without a box.</span>
If 5 biscuits cost 40p
1 biscuit would cost (40p divided by 5) 8p
8p multiplied by 3 (to get 3 biscuits) would cost 24p
3 biscuits cost 24p
Answer:
[-1,3]
Step-by-step explanation:
|2x|<x+3
calculate the absolute value
2*|x|<x+3
move < to left
2*|x|-x<3
split into possible cases
2x-x<3, x<0
2*(-x)-x<3, x<0
solve inequalities
[0,3]
[-1,0]
find union
[-1,3]
