Answer:

-16 > n or n < -16

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we can write the inequality and distribute.

-6n-12 > 3(-n+12)

-6n-12 > -3n+36

Get rid of a variable first (it makes solving a lot easier). We can add 6n to both sides.

-6n-12 > -3n+36

+6n +6n

-12 > 3n+36

Now, we can subtract 36 on both sides.

-12 > 3n+36

-36 -36

-48 > 3n

Divide by 3 on both sides.

-48 > 3n

/3 /3

-16 > n or (if it's easier) n < -16

Hope this helps!! Have a wonderful day C:

Answer:

m = $6.5

s = $3

Step-by-step explanation:

Raul ordered 1 small photo enlargement and 4 medium photo enlargements for $29. Patricia ordered 5 small photo enlargements and 2 medium photo enlargments for $28. determine the price of the small photo enlargements and medium photo enlargments

two equations can be derived from the question

s + 4m = 29 equation 1

5s + 2m = 28 equation 2

where

s = small photo enlargements

m = medium photo enlargements

multiply equation 1 by 5

5s + 20m = 145 equation 3

subtract equation 2 from 3

18m = 117

m = 6.5

substitute for m in equation 1

s = 29 - (4 x 6.5)

s = 3

From an airplane at an altitude of 1200m the angle of depression to a building one the ground measures 28 degrees. Find the dist

Inessa05 [86]

Check the picture below.

now, we're assuming "to the building" means "to the ground", since we don't know the building's height, so we're also assuming the 1200m is above the building, as you see in the picture.

make sure your calculator is in Degree mode.
