Eight less a number is less than or equal to seventeen

Mathematics
1 answer:
allsm [11]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

n ≥ -9  

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n = the number

8 <em>less than</em> a number means "n – 8", but

8 <em>less</em> a number means "8 – n," so

8 – n ≤ 17     Subtract 8 from each side

    -n ≤ 9      Multiply each side by -1

    n ≥ -9

<em>Note</em>: When we multiply by a negative number, we must reverse the inequality.

<em>Check:</em>

Try n = -8.

8 – (-8) ≤ 17

  8 + 8 ≤ 17

       16 ≤ 17

<em>True</em>.

What came first into your mind when you read the word “union"? How did you
vodomira [7]

Answer:

well when you hear "union" you think 'joined' or 'together' since thats what it means, In a mathmatical set of numbers, union means that both of the sets are necessary for the equation to be true. I'm not sure what the sets are in this problem but in order to get "union" from anything, that means that when you checked for your domains, the values that you got had to be part of both the given sets

On a certain hot​ summer's day, 645 people used the public swimming pool. The daily prices are $1.75 for children and $2.50 for
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

327 children and 318 adults

Step-by-step explanation:

The x be the amount of children and y be the amount of adults that were at the swimming pool. We can use this to set up a system of equations:

x+y=645

1.75x+2.50y=1367.25

Move y to the other side in the first equation to isolate x and solve the system using substitution:

x=645-y

  1.75(645-y)+2.50y=1367.25

Distribute

1128.75-1.75y+2.50y=1367.25

         1128.75+0.75y=1367.25

Subtract 1128.75 from both sides

                        0.75y=238.5

Divide both sides by 0.75

                                y=318

x=645-y

x=645-318

x=327

327 children and 318 adults swam at the pool that day

- 7(2-1) = 28<br> The solution is?
Aneli [31]

Answer:

Is there a x somewhere or is that litteraly how the equation is?

If so, -7 multiplied by 2 is -14,

-1 times -7 is 7,

add it together and you get

-7=28,

you could add 7 to both sides or subtract 28 from both sides and you'll get either 0=35 or -35=0

which would make the solution false since both sides are not the same
