Okay. Basically, a is greater than or equal to 9.
First, you do distribute the 2.
8a+2-10a(< or =)20
Subtract two on both sides.
8a-10a(< or =)18
Then subtract 10a from 8a
-2a(< or =)18
Divide by two on both sides
and switch around the greater than sign since you divided by a <span>-2
</span>a(> or =)-9
<span>And if you check, -9 works, -8 works, and -10 doesn't work.</span>
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
1) First, find the slope of the line. Use the slope formula
. Pick two points on the line and substitute their x and y values into the formula, then solve. I used the points (-5,-4) and (0,-6):
So, the slope of the line is
.
2) Next, use the point-slope formula
to write the equation of the line in point-slope form. (From there, we can convert it to slope-intercept form.) Substitute values for the
,
and
into the formula.
Since
represents the slope, substitute
in its place. Since
and
represent the x and y values of one point on the line, pick any point on the line (any one is fine, it will equal the same thing at the end) and substitute its x and y values in those places. (I chose (0,-6), as seen below.) Then, with the resulting equation, isolate y to put the equation in slope-intercept form:

Imagine A'V' is part of the dilated figure, and AV is part of the original figure.
A'V' = 3.2
AV = 3.2 + 4.8 = 8
A'V'/AV = 3.2/8 = 2/5
Answer: First choice, 2/5.
Answer:
y = 7
NO = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the side of the parallelogram LM and NO given be 2y - 9 and y - 2
Since LMNO is a parallelogram, hence;
LM = NO
2y - 9 = y - 2
2y - y = -2 + 9
y = 7
Since NO = y - 2
NO = 7 - 2
NO = 5
Answer:
$23.64
Step-by-step explanation:
Each package of seeds cost $1.97, and Maire bought and planted 12 packages. You would do 12 x 1.97 to get 23.64
