Hello.
We are solving -9.4 > 1.7x + 4.2.
First we need to swap sides:
Now we need to subtract 4.2 from both sides.
1.7x + 4.2 = -9.4
-4.2 . -4.2
Now let's combine -4.2 + 4.2 which is 0.
We get 1.7x < -9.4 - 4.2
Now let's divide both sides by 1.7
1.7x | -13.6
1.7 1.7
x < -13.6
1.7
So we just divided to get x < -8.
Answer:
$60
Step-by-step explanation:
The savings of Andries is $120 and his grandfather offered that he would give 50% of the amount he saved.
50% is actually just half of a given amount. So the short way to do this is just half the saving of Andries.
You can also think of it this way:
So we multiply that to the amount saved to solve for what is 50% of 120.
