Answer:
The answer is
x= -35
Step-by-step explanation:
x/5= -7
x= -35. :-)
My best guess is that 73 cartons are needed. Here's how:
876/12 ( because the jugs are shipped in cartons containing 12) = 73
This is just a guess, I'm sorry if someone proves me wrong, but this is what I have.
1 Amberjack
Kingfish equals 2 Amberjacks
Marlin equals 2 Kingfish or 4 Amberjacks
Tarpon equals 5 AmberJacks
So:
1A plus 2A plus 4A plus 5A equals the 252.
(where A is weight of the AmberJack).
Therefore:
12A equals 252, and A is 21. (252/12 = 21)
Then:
The Amberjack is 21Ibs.
The Kingfish (twice as much as A) is 42Ibs.
The Marlin (four times A) is 84Ibs.
And the Tarpon (five times A) is 105Ibs.
To Check:
21 + 42 + 84 + 105 = 252
Answer:
c. x=3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
7x < 21
Divide both sides by 7
7x / 7 < 21 / 7
x < 21/7
x < 3
x = 3
Check:
7x < 21
7(3) < 21
21 = 21
The y-intercept is 2. The y-intercept occurs when x is 0. In the graph, y is 2 when x is 0.
