Answer:
The fraction will increase by 100%
Step-by-step explanation:
Say the fraction is x/y. The question is telling us to decrease x by 20% (i.e. 0.8x) and to decrease y by 60% (i.e. 0.4y):
You can see that by applying these changes, the new fraction is actually double the old fraction (i.e. will increase by 100%).
1.
<span>1.5x-1 > 6.5
1.5x>1+6.5
</span>1.5x>7.5, divide by 1.5
x>5, is represented by the region to the right of the vertical line x=5
2.
<span>7x+3 < -25
7x<-25-3
7x<-28, divide by 4:
x<-4
</span>x<-4, is represented by the region to the left of the vertical line x=-4
