(24, 12) and (36, 0). The least amount of flowering plants occurs when x=2y, and the largest amount occurs when y=0. These two points satisfy both conditions and both sum to 36.
Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use cross products to solve
84/12 = 28/x
84 * x = 12 *28
Divide each side by 84
84x/84 = 12*28/84
x =4
4(m-2)=24
4m-8=24 distributive property
add 8 to each side
4m=32
divide each side by 4
m=8

Hi how are you doing today Jasmine
Answer:
Rule: If working with an inequality and you either mult. or div. by a negative number, you must reverse the direction of the inequality symbol.
Step-by-step explanation:
Your job here is to simplify 9t-4>32, in which the variable (t) is already positive. Here you do NOT switch signs or reverse the direction of the inequality symbol. Adding 4 to both sides, we get 9t > 36, or t > 4.
If, however, you had -9t-4>32 to work with, the situation would be different because t in this inequality is negative. Adding 4 to both sides results in:
-9t > 36. To solve for t, we must divide both sides by -9 AND reverse the direction of the inequality symbol:
t < -4.
