Answer: The city will need 33 trees.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we simply have to divide the length of the path (5 1/2 miles) distance between trees (1/6).

Mathematically speaking:

5 1/2 ÷ 1/6 = (5x2+1) /2 ÷1/6 = 11/2 ÷1/6 = (11x6) /(2x1) = 66/2 =33 trees

The city will need 33 trees.

Which values of k are solutions to the inequality |-k-2|<18? Check all that apply<br> -40

Answer:

any number except -20

Step-by-step explanation:

$|-k-2|$

$-k-2$ $-k-2>18$

$-k$ $-k>18+2$

$-k$ $-k>20$

Multiply by -1 to make the k positive. This will alter all the terms which means 20 will become negative. NOTE: When multiplying or dividing by negative numbers, the inequaliy sign flips.

$k>-20$ $k$

k must be either greater than -20 but not including it or fewer than -20 but not including it; therefore, any number between negative infinity and -21 and -19 and postive infinity

18x-16y=5
Subtract 18x from each side
-16y=-18x+5
Divide by -16
y=18/16x-5/16

y=9/8x-5/16 this one is with improper fractions
