Answer:

Jim is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to state which of the two opinions are correct.

Let us examine Mikela's claim

He said the sum of two any two numbers is greater than the larger of the two numbers

Let us pick -1 and 30

adding both gives 29, which refutes this claim

For Jim, we need to understand what natural numbers are

By definition, natural numbers are positive whole numbers

What this means is that the set of numbers which is considered by Jim is limited

So let us take two natural numbers, 3 and 5

Adding both gives 8 which is greater than 5

We must note that at any point in time, for any two natural numbers, the sum of both is always greater than the bigger of both

I need a little help! Can someone check my work? It's a written response with linear systems.
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

I'd say you need to be more specific.

Step-by-step explanation:

"Different" doesn't tell you much.

Consider the equations ...

  • y = 2x + 1
  • 4x - 2y = -2

These equations are "different", but they are <em>dependent</em>.

_____

I'd mentally (or actually) put the equations in the same form and compare the coefficients of x and y. If they have different ratios, the system is independent and consistent.

If they have the same ratio, the system will not have a single solution. Whether there is no solution or an infinite number of solutions depends on the constant, which I would examine next.

The system above can be put in the form

  • 2x -y = -1
  • 4x -2y = -2

In both cases, the ratio of the x coefficient to the y coefficient is 2/-1 = 4/-2 = -2. This means the lines are at least parallel, if not identical. The numbers in the second equation are all 2 times the numbers in the first equation, so the equations are <em>dependent</em>, and there are an infinite number of solutions. (Both describe the same line.)

If the second equation were 4x -2y = 1, then the two equations would be describing parallel lines, so they would be called <em>inconsistent</em>.

Find the range of the dataset<br> 8,11,5,22,9,18,5,20
lakkis [162]

Answer: 17

Step-by-step explanation: The range of a data set is the difference between the largest and smallest numbers

In this data set, the largest number is 22 and the smallest number is 5 so the range of the data set will simply be 22 - 5 or 17.

So the range of this data set is 17.

Your company gives you a cell phone plan which allows you 600 minutes to talk per month. So far this month, you have used 330 mi
Evgen [1.6K]
The answer is C) 10x + 330 ≤ 600. 
We use the ≤ since you are allowed to use the 600th minute.
When we subtract 330 from both sides, it makes a bit more sense
10x ≤ 270
270 is the number of minutes left your plan since you've already used 330, and you have 10 days left in the month.
