When applying indirect proofs, we assume the negation of the conclusion is true, and show that this assumption would lead to nonsense, or contradiction.
In our case we assume a is not smaller than 7, that is we assume a≥7.
a≥7 then, multiplying both sides by 3:
3a≥21, then, adding both sides 7:
3a+7≥28,
which is a contradiction because 3a+7 is smaller than 28.
So our assumption is wrong, which means the opposite of it is correct.
Answer: assume a≥7
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
You use law of sines, and get: AB/sin(53) = 7/sin(44)
You multiply both sides by sin(53), and get:
AB = 7*sin(53)/sin(44)
That means AB is 8.04776679886, which rounds to 8
The correct answer would be -4
explanation:
2x-5<-12, add 5 to both sides so then you get 2x<-8, then divide by two, x<-4.
63
Step-by-step explanation:
2x+54=180
2x=180-54
2x=126
divide each side by two u will get x
