Answer:
multiply 77 by 10 which is 770 then you multiply it by 5 which is half of 10 so 385 then add them together and you get 1155
-5x - 7 < 28.....add 7 to both sides
-5x < 35....divide both sides by -5, change the inequality sign (u change the inequality sign when dividing/multiplying by a negative number)
x > -7
To compare the numbers, go from left to right examining the numbers carefully. so look at a., 3.7 can be written as 3.700, if u look, 3 and 0, it is definetly bigger than 0.01 and 0.001
Take any of the valid pairs of points, use the formula
rate of change = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
Say we use P1=(0,21.4), P2=(3,19)
x1=0, y1=21.4
x2=3, y2=19
Rate of change = (21.4-19)/(0-3)=2.4/(-3) = -0.8 sq. ft/in of liquid
The value of a is -6
The value of b is 48
