Answer:
1/2 - Half of the numbers are odd
28,000+3,000x=36,000+2,000x
X will be the number of years worked, now we just have to make the equation true.
I did the work out already, and the answer is 8!
If you want to check my answer just substitute it in to the problem for x.
Answer: 90
Explanation: The pattern is add 3 then the next set is double. [9-6=3 then 18-9=9(or doubled)] and the pattern continues and because 45-42=3 the next number set would be 45 doubles which equals 90.
Answer: 3/5t + 2 = 2 can be translated into a sentence.
That sentence can be: three fifths a number plus two is equal to two.
To get that number in the problem, you need to translate first the word problem into mathematical expression.
We will let x as the number.
six more than the product of a number and -2 is greater than 10 can be written as (-2x) + 6 > 10
We will now solve for x to get the number.
(-2x) + 6 > 10
Add -6 to both sides of the equation
-2x + 6 - 6 > 10 - 6
-2x > 4
Divide both sides of the equation with -2
Take note that if we divide a negative number in inequality, the inequality symbol will be change from greater than to less or from less than to greater than.
-2x / -2< 4 / -2
x < -2
Therefore, the number that we are looking for is less than -2.
