Answer:
23
Step-by-step explanation:
Is what I would say
Answer:
a - (-b), a - (-5)
Step-by-step explanation:
A double negative negative is a positive, so a - (-b) = a + b, and a - (-5) is a + 5. However, a double negative is still a difference, so this answer works.
It would be 2/4. 2/4 simplifies to 1/2.
You forgot to provide the slope but here is how you do this
the slope 5 = (y2 - y) / (x2 - x) but we know that (x2, y2) = (-10, -5)
=> (-5 - y) / (-10 - x) = 5 --- multiply both sides by (-10 - x)
=> (-5 - y) = 5 (-10 - x)
=> (-5 - y) = -50 - (5)x --- add +5 to both sides
=> -y = (-50 + 5) - (5)x --- multiply both sides -1
=> y = 5x + 45 --- this will be your equation.
The shopkeeper spends 2x + 21 dollars on electricity
The amount the shopkeeper spends on electricity less than $100 is:
x < 39.5
<h3>What is a linear inequality?</h3>
Linear inequality explains the range of values that a variable represents.
Total amount spent by the shopkeeper = 7x + 19
Amount spent on rent = 5x - 2
Total amount spent = Amount spent on rent + Amount spent on electricity
(7x + 19) = (5x - 2 ) + Amount spent on electricity
Amount spent on electricity = (7x + 19) - (5x - 2)
Amount spent on electricity = 7x - 5x + 19 + 2
Amount spent on electricity = 2x + 21
For which value(s) of x is the amount the shopkeeper spends on electricity less than $100?
Amount spent on electricity < 100
2x + 21 < 100
2x < 100 - 21
2x < 79
x < 79/2
x < 39.5
