What is the solution of the inequality c+6

PLEASE HELP ME!!!! WILL REWARD BRAINLIEST!!!!!

Answer:

-4 and -2.

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all,... OH MAN,... that is serious brain twisting logic (if you can call it logic) and to be fair I had to ask a math expert person I'm acquainted with,... cause I didn't know either,... so nothing to be ashamed about,...

If we let 2x equal the lesser of the two consecutive EVEN integers, and we let y equal 2x+2 be the greater of the two consecutive EVEN integers,

(For example, this is like x = 1, so 2x=2, y=4 or x=7, so 2x=14 and y=16, we add 2 to the lesser even integer to get the next CONSECUTIVE even integer.)

This, y=2x+2, is one of the equations we need. To get the other,

"Four times the lesser (4*2x) is (=) 12 less (-12) than twice the greater (2y)."

Doing it all in math, we get:

4(2x) = 2y - 12

This simplifies to:

8x = 2y - 12

And using the first equation (y=2x+2) we can substitute "2x+2" in for "y"

8x = 2(2x + 2) - 12

Simplify the right side by first distributing:

8x = 4x + 4 - 12

Combine like terms on the right.

8x = 4x - 8

Subtract 4x from both sides

4x = -8

Divide both sides by 4

x= -2

Remember, our lesser even integer is 2x, so the lesser integer is 2*(-2)= -4, the greater is (-4)+2= -2.

Final answer: The two consecutive even integers are -4 and -2.

To be even more fair I don't fully understand this completely either,... he explained it to me and I and getting it,... so anyway,... Hope it helps, and

Chow,...!

Jane has 18 juice boxes, 24 bags of peanuts and 36 apples. She wants to make snack bags with same number of each thing in each b

pishuonlain [190]

Answer: 6 snack bags.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this exercise it is important to remember the Greatest Common Divisor (GCD). This is defined as the largest positive intener by which you can divided evenly "n" numbers.

In this case, you know that Jane has 18 juice boxes, 24 bags of peanuts and 36 apples. Therefore, the steps are the following:

1. You need to descompose 18, 24 and 36 into their prime factors, as below:

$18=2*3*3=2*3^2\\\\24=2*2*2*3=2^3*3\\\\36=2*2*3*3=2^2*3^2$

2. Now you must choose the common ones with the smallest exponent and multiply them.

Then, you get:

$GCD=3*2\\\\GCD=6$

Therefore, the greatest number of snack bags that Jane can make is: 6 snack bags.

Please helppp i need this done and i dont know what to do

ioda

Answer:

FRACTION DECIMAL

1/5( 1*2/5*2=2/10) 0.2

3/10 0.3

1/2(1*5/2*5=5/10) 0.5

7/10 0.7

3/4(3*25/4*25=75/100) 0.75

NOTE: To conert a fraction into decimal, it is required that the denominator be changed into 10, 100, 1000 and so on..... By changing the denominator, we have to first select the appropriate number by which you will be able to convert it into 10, 100 or 1000, and you are also required to multiply that number with the denominator as well as numerator. In the first question, 1/5 we can convert the denoinator into 10, 100 or 1000 as the denominator is 5, whatever you choose, the answer will be correct, so, 1*2/5*2 gives 2/10. Since 10 has one zero, the decimal point moves one time towards the left, which gives 0.2. And you can do the rest according to this way, considering the number of zeroes.
