x > 5.2
How do I explain...?
Answer:
C. x > 3
Step-by-step explanation:
As long as you don't multiply or divide by any negative numbers*, <em>you can solve this the same way you would an equation</em>.
3x +2 > x +8
3x > x +6 . . . . . . subtract 2
2x > 6 . . . . . . . . subtract x
x > 3 . . . . . . . . . .divide by 2; matches choice C
_____
* The complete rule is "as long as you don't use any order-changing operations, ...". There are some functions you can apply to both sides of the inequality that will change the ordering. Multiplication or division by a negative number is only one of many.
1 < 2
-1 > -2 . . . . . multiplication by -1 reverses the order
Answer:
4 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Amount of Rainfall in October = 14 inches
Amount of Rainfall in October = 3 1/2 times more than Rainfall during September
How much rain fell.during September :
The problem is a division problem ;
Since the amount of Rainfall in October is greater, then obtaining the amount of Rainfall in September requires dividing The amount of Rainfall in October by the number of times it is more than the September rainfall;
If multiplication is applied, then tbe value obtained will be greater than 14 inches. Which makes no sense since, the Rainfall in October is much greater than that in September.
14 inches ÷ 3 1/2
14 ÷ 7/2
14 * 2 / 7
= 28 / 7
= 4 inches
Hence, the amount of Rainfall in September is 4 inches
Basiclaly solve for y
8x+4y=16
minus 8x both sides
4y=-8x+16
divide by 4 both sides
y=-2x+4
