You’ll distribute the 7 from (x-4) so your equation will be
28-x>_ 7x-28
then you’ll combine like terms (-x and 7x and 28 and -28
-56>_ -8x
divide by -8 on both sides and flip your sign
you’re answer is x<_7
x is less then or equal to 7
Almost all correct except two. Please check corrected image.
I'll get you started. Let x and y be the two numbers. we have: x + y = 74 (sum is 74) x = 4y - 6 (the number x is six less than 4 times y) Now that you have the equations use an algebraic techniques to eliminate one variable thereby solving for the other. If you need more help add a comment to your question.
10x^2y^-2 = 10 x (-1)^2 x (-2)^-2 = 10 x 1 x 1/4 = 10/4 = 2 1/2
Percent change = ((new value) - (old value))/(old value) × 100%
= (3710 - 6000)/6000 × 100%
= -38.16%
The decrease in circulation is about 38%.
