Answer: X>4

Step-by-step explanation: use distributive property. -5 times X times -7. Subtract -35 from both sides. +35-35 cancels out. Subtract 35 from 15. Divide -5 from both sides. Edit: omg I just realized I didn’t change the sign!

-5x+35<15

-35<15-35

-5x<15-35

-5x<-20

x>4

Yes - they have to be similar. Since they are using the same line as the hypotenuse, the ratio of the other two sides are in the same ratio (ie, the slope of the line), the 3 inner angles will be the same. Thus, the triangles will be similar.

1. Y varies inversely with x. If y = 9 when x = -5, find the value of x when y=-6.

Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1 ) Y∝ 1 / X

Y = k / X

Y = 9 , X = -5

Putting the values in the relation above

9 = k / - 5

k = -45

Y = - 45 / X

Put Y = - 6

- 6 = - 45 / X

X = - 45 / -6

= 7.5

Luke and Nora can peel 12 carrots in 5 minutes

in 1 minute Luke and Nora can peel 12 / 5 carrot

in 1 minute Luke alone can peel 12/ 11 carrot .

In 1 minute Nora alone will peel (12 / 5 - 12/ 11 ) carrot

(12 / 5 - 12 / 11 )

= 2.4 - 1.1

= 1.3 carrot

In 1 minute Nora alone will peel 1.3 carrot

1.3 carrot in 1 minute

8 carrot in 8 / 1.3 minute

= 6.15 minutes.

In 1 minute Nora alone will peel 8 carrot in 6.15 minutes working alone.

Answer:

The solution of this system of equations is (3 , -8)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given system is

x + 2y = -13

12x + 5y = -4

We make x the subject of the first equation and put it into the second:

$x = - 13 - 2y$

We put this expression for x into the second equation

12(-13-2y)+5y=-4

-156-24y+5y=-4

-24y+5y=-4+156

-19y=152

y=-8

We substitute y=-8 into x=-13-2y to get:

$x = - 13 - 2( - 8) = 3$

The solution of this system of equations is (3 , -8)
