In 2 2/3 months you ran 76 miles.
To know how many miles you ran each month, you can simply use cross multiplication as follows:
number of miles per month= (76) / (2 2/3)
= 28.5 miles

Given that $x \le -7,$ identify all the correct conclusions. (A) $3x \le -21.$ (B) $3x \ge -21.$ (C) $-3x \le 21.$ (D) $-3x \ge

exis [7]

Answer:

Options A and D are correct choices.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given an inequality $x\leq -7$ and we are asked to find the correct options from our given choices.

Let us solve inequalities in our given options one by one to see which of these matches with our given inequality.

(A) $3x\leq -21$

$x\leq \frac{-21}{3}$

$x\leq -7$

We can see that option A gives the same answer as our given inequality, therefore, option A is the correct choice.

(B) $3x\geq -21$

$x\geq \frac{-21}{3}$

$x\geq -7$

This inequality represented in option C gives solution that x should be greater than or equal to -7, which is opposite to our given inequality, therefore, option B is incorrect.

Dividing inequality by a negative number swaps inequality sign.

$x\geq \frac{21}{-3}$

$x\geq -7$

This inequality gives solution that x should be greater than or equal to -7, which is opposite to our given inequality, therefore, option C is incorrect.

(D) $-3x\geq 21$

Dividing inequality by a negative number swaps inequality sign.

$x\leq \frac{21}{-3}$

$x\leq -7$

We can see that option D gives the same answer as our given inequality, therefore, option D is the correct choice.

Eight less than a number doubled is twenty more than the number. What is the number?

m_a_m_a [10]

Let the number be a .... =>Number doubled : 2a .. =>Eight less than the no. Doubled : 2a - 8 =>Eight less than the no. doubled is 20 more than the no. : 2a - 8 = 20 + a =>2a - 8 - 20 - a = 0 =>2a -a - 20 -8 = 0 =>a -28 = 0 =>a = 28 =>so the number is 28... Hope it helps!!!
