Answer:

When solving -7y > 161 your symbol will be flipped when you divide by -7 and the number will be negative. Normally you would want to have a negative variable

when solving a inequality.

In 7y > -161 the symbol will not be flipped and the number will be negative.

The difference between both equations is if y is less than or greater.

Answer:

The inequalities would be different. One would be less than and the other would be greater than.

Step-by-step explanation:

The main differences between them is that the solutions that you would end up with with be completely different when you solve them.

Work:

-7y > 161\\\\\text{The variable (y) can't be negative, so you would divide -7 on both sides}\\\text{Since you're diving by a negative, the}\, (>)\text{ would flip.}\\\\y -161\\\\\text{In this one, you would just divide by 7}\\\\y>-23

They both get -23, but the inequalities would be different.

A book sold 31,700 copies in its first month of release. Suppose this represents 8.8% of the number of copies sold to date. How
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

For this case we propose a rule of three:

31700 ------------> 8.8%

x ----------------------> 100%

Where "x" represents the number of copies sold to date.

x = \frac {100 * 31700} {8.8}\\x = \frac {3170000} {8.8}\\x = 360,227.273

Thus, to date 360,227 copies of the book have been sold.

ANswer:

To date, 360,227 copies of the book have been sold.
