aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

x = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

-5(x + 3) = 15

Distribute the -5

-5x -15 =15

Add 15 to each side

-5x-15+15 =15+15

-5x = 30

Divide each side by -5

-5x/-5 = 30/-5

x =-6

Which inequality defines the shaded region graphed below?
masha68 [24]

Answer:

Every ordered pair within this region will satisfy the inequality y ≥ x. Incorrect. The boundary line here is y = x, and the correct region is shaded, but remember that a dotted line is used for < and >. The inequality you are graphing is y ≥ x, so the boundary line should be solid.

8. Lauren wants to buy a shirt that costs $80. Her mother told her that she could only spend $35 for the shirt. The shirt finall
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

No. Lauren cannot buy the shirt. It costs $48 after the discount.

Step-by-step explanation:

Shirt Cost: $80

Money: $35

Discount: 40%

First, find the amount of the discount by finding 40% of the price. 40% is equal to 0.40 (or 40 divided by 100).

40% of $80 = 0.40 x 80 = $32

Since it's a discount, the final price is the original price minus the discount.

$80 - $32 = $48

So, after a 40% discount, the price is still $48. Lauren only has $35, so it will still be too expensive!
