The number on the left side of the decimal, write it as a large, in this case, three. The number on the right side of the decimal, write as a small number. Then put a ten under the five, and divide the two with a line. A way to remember this is - Imagine you have 3 cookies. The .5 represents a half of a cookie. You need to have all ten parts of the cookie to make a whole cookie. You'd need 5 more pieces of cookie to make 4 cookies. Hope this helps.
Answer:
-8 ≤ y ≤ 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract 7 from the first one:
y ≥ -8
Subtract 3 from the second one, then multiply by 4.
y/4 ≤ 2
y ≤ 8
Now, you can write these as a compound inequality:
-8 ≤ y ≤ 8

<em>Additional comment</em>
You basically solve these the same way you would an equation. The only difference is that multiplying or dividing by a negative number will reverse the inequality symbol:
2 > 1
-2 < -1 . . . . . multiplied above by -1.
Answer:
70/100
Step-by-step explanation:
Surface of the earth covered with water = 7/10
Equivalent fraction of 7/10 with 100 as the denominator = 70/100
This means 70% of the earth surface is covered with water
Percentage covered with land = Total percentage - percentage covered with water
= 100/100 - 70/100
= 100-70/100
= 30/100
Percentage covered with land = 30%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's subtitute 
for the above equation:
