A graph of this inequality would be a number line, with the number -2 circled (not filled in), and the number line to the right of -2 shaded.

To solve this, you will combine like terms first:

-3x-7x < 20
-10x < 20

Divide both sides by -10:
-10x/-10 < 20/-10

When you divide an inequality by a negative number, you flip the inequality symbol:

x > -2

Write an algebraic expression that represents<br> the following phrase:<br> The product of 8 and 12

Ainat [17]

Answer:

$8*12$

Step-by-step explanation:

First, the problem asks for an expression; this means that there should be no equal sign. Also, the keyword "product" means that both the terms must be multiplied. So, $8*12$ is the final expression; this equals 96.

A fence must be built to enclose a rectangular area of 20,000 ft^2. Fencing material costs $4 per foot for the two sides facing

Marysya12 [62]

The cost of the least expensive fence is $3200

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is:

A fence must be built to enclose a rectangular area of 20,000 ft²
Fencing material costs $4 per foot for the two sides facing north and south and $8 per foot for the other two sides

We need to find the cost of the least expensive fence

Assume that the length of each side opposite to North or South is x feet and the length of each other sides is y feet

∵ The length of the rectangle = x feet

∵ The width of the rectangle = y feet

∵ The rectangular area is 20,000 ft²

- Area of a rectangle = length × width

∴ x × y = 20,000

- Divide both sides by x to find y in terms of x

∴ $y=\frac{20,000}{x}$
