Mathematics
1 answer:
Kobotan [32]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

a=8

Step-by-step explanation:

-5(a+3)=-55

First you times the bracket by -5

-5a-15=-55

Then you add the 15 to -55 because since the 15 is a negative on the right it has to be the opposite to the left

-5a=-40

Then you divide both sides by negative 5

-5a .     = .      -40  

---------         ----------

- 5                    -5

a= 8

If x is an integer, what is the least possible value for x that satisfies the inequality?
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

C. -8

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to solve the inequality by isolating x.

-5x - 12 < 33

Add 12 to both sides.

-5x < 45

Divide both sides by -5 (remember to flip the sign when dividing by a negative).

x > -9

The least possible value for x that satisfies this inequality is -8.
