Katework+jeanwork=6
work alone
Katework=-5+Jeanwork
ad 5 to both sides
Katework+5=jeanwork
subsitute 5+katework for jeanwork
5+katework+kateworkwork=6
subtract 5 from both sides
2katework=1
divide both sides by 2
katework=0.5days

equation would be
jeanwork+katework=6 and
katework=jeanwork-5 are the equations

A triangle has two sides of length 1 and 2. What compound inequality describes the possible lengths for the third side, x?Write
klemol [59]

Step-by-step explanation:

since in a triangle each side must be shorter than the sum of the other 2 sides (otherwise the end points cannot connect, and there is no triangle), the necessary inequality condition must be

side < 1 + 2 = 3

so,

side < 3

for a lower limit let's go through the cases

1 < 2 + side (is always true)

2 < 1 + side

1 < side (side must be larger than 1)

and again

side < 1 + 2 = 3

side < 3

so the full restriction for the third side is

1 < side < 3

Triss [41]

The restaurant needs at least 761 forks.

There are currently 205 forks

Each set on sale contains 10 forks,

The number of set taht have to buy are x

Number of forks in x set are = 10x

Since, we need at least 761

So 761 should be graeter than equal to the sum of reamining forks and the new forks

i.e. 761 ≥ 10x + 205

Answer : 3. 761 ≥ 10x + 205

PLEASE HELP!! Trevor is writing a paper that must be 50,000 words long. He had already written 23,210 words. Write an inequality
almond37 [142]

Answer:

50,000 ≤ 23,210 + 5x

x = Average number of words per week

Step-by-step explanation:

Start off with 50,000 because that's how many words the paper needs to have.

Use "≤" because Trevor needs to write at least 50,000 words. (He can write more).

Trevor already wrote 23,210 words plus x words per week for 5 weeks.

(Solving for x will help you find the average number of words Trevor must write per week for 5 weeks).
