Answer:

3/5

-5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The opposite of a number is the positive or negative version of a positive or negative number. The absolute value is the number of spaces away from 0 on a number line and is always positive. The reciprocal is the denominator and the numerator switched.

Multiply each hourly rate by x ( time to complete the work) add it to the service call for each and then set the equations equal:

50 + 40x = 30 +45x

Subtract 30 from both sides:

20 + 40x = 45x

Subtract 40x from both sides:

20 = 5x

Divide both sides by 5

x = 4

The length is 4 hours.

Name two solutions for each inequality.

ahrayia [7]

So,

#1: $n \geq 3 \frac{11}{16} + 4 \frac{1}{2}$

Convert to like improper fractions.
$n \geq \frac{59}{16} + \frac{72}{16}$

Add.
$n \geq \frac{131}{16}\ or\ 8 \frac{3}{16}$

So, one solution could be $8 \frac{3}{16}$ .

Another solution could by 9. There is also 10, 11, 12, etc., and all numbers in between.

#2: $k \ \textless \ 6 \frac{2}{5} * 15$

Convert into improper fraction form.
$k \ \textless \ \frac{32}{5} * 15$

Multiply.
$\frac{(2^5)(3)(5)}{5}$

Cross-cancel, and we have our final result.
$(2^5)(3) = 96$
k < 96

96 is not a solution.

95 is a solution.

So is 94, 93, 92, etc, and all numbers in between.
