Y = -3x - 1......so we sub in -3x - 1 in for y in the other equation
2x + 5y = 12
2x + 5(-3x - 1) = 12....now distribute the 5 through the parenthesis
2x - 15x - 5 = 12...add 5 to both sides
2x - 15x = 12 + 5..combine like terms
-13x = 17...divide both sides by -13
x = -17/13
now sub in -17/13 for x in the other equation
y = -3x - 1
y = -3(-17/13) - 1
y = 51/13 - 1
y = 51/13 - 13/13
y = 38/13
so the solution is (-17/13, 38/13)
The inequality negative 3 and one-half greater-than negative 4.5 or -3.5 > -4.5 is true.
<h3>What is inequality?</h3>
It is defined as the expression in mathematics in which both sides are not equal they have mathematical signs either less than or greater than known as inequality.
We have inequalities given:
or
1.5 > 2.5 (false)
1/2 > 0.5
0.5 > 0.5 (false)
-2.5 > -1.5 (false)
-3.5 > -4.5 (true)
Thus, the inequality negative 3 and one-half greater-than negative 4.5 or -3.5 > -4.5 is true.

A] Given that the last years's sales was $144,600 and this years sales should increase by 1/3. Then:
i] Amount the sales should increased by will be:
(last year's sales)*(increase)
=144,600*(1/3)
=48,200
ii] The sales in the new year will be:
(last year's sales)+(increase)
=144600+48600
=$192, 800
2] Given that the sales of hifi which included 6% tax was 205,000. The actual sales was:
Actual percentage sales=100%
percentage sales after taxation=100-6=94%
thus the actual sales was:
(100)/(94)*205,000
=218, 085.1064
3]Given that the rate per $100 is $0.83, and the insurance was for 90000, the insurance premium will be:
(total insurance) *(unit rate)/(number of units)
plugging the values we obtain:
90000*0.83/100
$747
