Given:
Claire is 2 year younger than her sister.
The sum of ages is no less than 44 years.
To find:
Inequality and find the youngest age Claire can be.
Solution:
Let the age of Claire be x.
Her sister's age = x+2
Sum of their ages is no less than 44 years. It means the sum ages is greater than or equal to 44.




Divide both sides by 2.

It means, Claire age can be greater than or equal to 21. So, the youngest age Claire can be 21 years old.
Therefore, the required inequality is
and the correct option is B.
Answer:
<h3>
1) 7x - 5
</h3><h3>
2) 9y - 18
</h3><h3>
3) 0.5n + 4n
</h3><h3>
4) 2(w³+23)</h3><h3>
Step-by-step explanation:</h3>
1)
The product of seven and a number x: 7·x = 7x
<u>Five less than the product of seven and a number x:</u>
<h3>
7x - 5
</h3>
2)
nine times a number y: 9·y = 9y
<u>The difference of nine times a number y and eighteen:</u>
<h3>
9y - 18
</h3>
3)
half a number n: 0.5n
four times the number: 4·n = 4n
<u>Half a number n increased by four times the number:</u>
<h3>
0.5n + 4n
</h3>
4)
a number w cubed: w³
the sum of a number w cubed and twenty-three: w³+23
<u>Twice the sum of a number w cubed and twenty-three:</u>
<h3>2(
w³+23)</h3>
Here is the solution based on the given problem above.
Given: Area of the piece of paper = 84 square inches
Width = 10 1/2 or 10.5 inches long
? = length of the piece of paper
To find the area of an object, the formula would be A= L x W
Now, let's substitute the given values above
84in2 = L(10.5in)
Now, divide both sides with 10.5 and we get 8.
L = 8 inches.
Therefore, the length of the paper is 8 inches.
Hope this solution helps.
Answer:
1/6
Step-by-step explanation:
People who answered less than 1/2 were: 2 + 1 + 3 = 6 people.
There are a total of 36 people.
People who answered their calls before the second ring were only 6/36.
When we simplify the fraction, we get 1/6.
So, the answer is 1/6.
Answer: B
Number on the left: x-value
Number on the right: y-value
If there are 2 y-values for one x-value it is NOT considered a function.
For instance in the answer:
(2,3), (2,4), (3,3), (3,4)
You can clearly see that the x-values (2 & 3) repeat more than once; therefore, it is NOT a function.
On the other hand if you have 2 DIFFERENT x-values for the same y-value it IS A FUNCTION.
For ex D: (2,4), (3,4), (5,4), (6,4)
As you can see there are 4 DIFFERENT x-values with same y-value; therefore it is A FUNCTION
To make it easier:
If x-values appear more than once = NOT A FUNCTION
If x-values appear only ONCE = FUNCTION
Remember: y-values are ALLOWED to repeat
