Let us assume that the number of alternative schools in the county are x in number.
It is given that the number of charter schools is 4 less than twice the number of alternative schools. So we can write, the number of charter schools is 4 less than twice of x. In equation form this can be written as:
Number of Charter Schools = 2x - 4
It is given that number of charter schools is 48. So we can write:
48 = 2x - 4
2x = 52
x = 26
x was the number of alternative schools. Therefore, there are 26 alternative schools in the county.
Answer:
x > 4 for an inequality :)
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
A.
As x decreases in value, f(x) decreases in value.
As x increases in value, f(x) increases in value.
Step-by-step explanation:
As we move our eyes towards the right following the curve, we see that the y-values are larger and larger. As we move to the right following the curve, the values of the x-variable in the horizontal axis are increasing. Then as x increases, the values of f(x) also increase.
On the other hand, if we move our eyes to the left following the curve, this way looking into what values the function adopts for smaller and smaller values of x, we see that the f(x) values decrease (the curve goes down).
Then, to summarize:
a) As we move to the right, thus increasing the values of x, we see the values of f(x) increase
b) As we move to the left, thus decreasing the values of x, we see the values of f(x) decrease.
