When applying indirect proofs, we assume the negation of the conclusion is true, and show that this assumption would lead to nonsense, or contradiction.
In our case we assume a is not smaller than 7, that is we assume a≥7.
a≥7 then, multiplying both sides by 3:
3a≥21, then, adding both sides 7:
3a+7≥28,
which is a contradiction because 3a+7 is smaller than 28.
So our assumption is wrong, which means the opposite of it is correct.
Answer: assume a≥7
Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
x/5 + 1 = 11
x/5 = 10
x = 50
Plug in 6.5 for x.
-8.5x-3.5x=-78
-8.5(6.5)-3.5(6.5)=-78
-55.25-22.75=-78
-78=-78
If 2 of 12 eggs are cracked, then 10 are not cracked.
SO
10/12=5/6=about 0.83
0.83 of total eggs not cracked is also equivalent to 83 percent as asked in the problem :)
