A number b times -16 is greater than 5

Mathematics
1 answer:
lord [1]3 years ago
8 0

Write the Inequality

A number b times -16 is greater than 5.

A number b is a variable... b.

Times means multiply.

-16 is what you are multiplying b by.

Is greater than means the greater than symbol.

5 is what the past statements are greater than.

So this is the inequality.

-16b > 5

Solve the Inequality

You need to isolate b.

To do this, divide each side by -16. You do this because b is being multiplied by -16. You know that any number divided by that number equals 1, canceling the number.

-16b ÷ -16 = b

5 ÷ -16 = -5/16

So you get b > -5/16

So to make the inequality true, b must be more than -5/16.

Or as an inequality...

b > -5/16

The measures of the first and second angles in a triangle are equal.The third angle measures 9 times the sum of the equal angles
Liula [17]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  9°, 9°, 162°

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the measure of the first angle. Then the sum of all of the angles in the triangle is ...

  x + x + 9(x+x) = 180°

  20x = 180° . . . . . . . . . . collect terms

  x = 180°/20 = 9° . . . . . divide by 20

  9(x+x) = 162° . . . . . . . find the third angle

The three angle measures are 9°, 9°, and 162°.

The least number of colors needed to correctly color in the sections of the given picture so that no two touching sections have the same color is 5.

Let's say we begin with a single triangle. This triangle will be the first of a series of seven subsequent triangles, none of which will have any portions contact. If a square were the initial shape, then there are five shapes—three of which are squares and the other two are triangles—that don't have any touching portions. Given that a square takes up twice as much room, this value is probably lower, but location also matters. Therefore, for the given figure, the least number of colored areas you can color in that yet meet the required criteria is 5.
