You need to set up a fraction. You can use red/blue which would be 5/7. Then, create the second ratio which would be 8/12. And there you will find your answer, which this answer also works for your answering wether you get yes or no.
Three consecutive even integers whose sum is -48
Question one is y( Insert sign) -9
6>4-2x<4
so therefor (4x-2) must be less than 6 and less than 4
it must be
6>4-2x and 4<4-2x
find the intersection
6>4-2x
add 2x to both sides
6+2x>4
subtract 6
2x>-2
divide by 2
x>-1
4>4-2x
add 2x
4+2x>4
subtract 4
2x>0
x>0
so we have
x>0
and x>-1
the range of x>-1 includes most of x>0 so the answer is
x>-1
Answer: The team's win-loss record that year is 1.7
Step-by-step explanation:
During the 2017 Major League Baseball season the Cleveland Indians played 162 games.
Let x = the number of games that the
Cleveland Indians lost during the 2017 Major League Baseball season.
This means that the number of games that the Cleveland Indians won during the 2017 Major League Baseball season would be x + 42.
Total number of games played = sum of games won + sum of games lost. This is expressed as
162 = x + 42 + x
2x + 42 = 162
2x = 162-42 = 120
x = 120/2 = 60
Number of games that the Cleveland Indians lost during the 2017 Major League Baseball season is 60
The number of games that the Cleveland Indians won during the 2017 Major League Baseball season is 60 + 42 = 102
The team's win-loss record that year
would be wins/loses
= 102/60 = 1.7
