A negative number always factors as a positive times a negative.

I would reccomend doing it systematically, like I have done below.

When ding it this way, you will see that -8 and +3 satisfy both requirements.

Jason with 120 and is going 10 pounds each month Gerardo weighs 150 pounds and is having 4 pounds each month . Write an equation

pshichka [43]

Answer:

5 months

Step-by-step explanation:

Jason's original weight = 120 pounds

Let the no. of months be m

If he gains 10 pounds in each moth , then his weight in m months will be = 10m

His total weight will be= 120+10m -----(1)

Gerardo's original weight = 150 pounds

If he gains 4 pounds in each month , then his weight in m months will me =4m

His total weight will be = 150+4m-----(2)

Equating (1) ans(2)

120+10m=150+4m

=>10m-4m=150-120

=>6m=30

=>m= $\frac{30}{6}$

=>m=5

It will take 5 months for Jason to weigh the same as Gerardo

Can somebody help me please? Thank u! :)

tatuchka [14]

Answer:

1. last choice

2. first choice

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>First Image</h3>

The reason why it is the last choice because when times keep going as distance also keeps increasing as well. But the last choice says that run at the end of track then turn around and run back. That means there must be a decreasing distance and a maximum value as well.

Therefore the only with max point/vertex is the absolute value which matches the last choice.

<h3>Second Image</h3>

First choice because the car straight forwards without any change. The car runs with a steady speed but the distance will keep changing without any change of distance.

So the answer is first choice.

Answer:

x < -12

Step-by-step explanation:

-1/2x > 6

Multiply by -2 to isolate x

-2 * -1/2x < 6*-2

x < -12

x = 4

sides of triangle:

5(4) = 20 cm

32 cm

6(4) + 2 = 26 cm

F=5/4(n-90) Find n Helppp

padilas [110]

Answer:

n= 4f/5+90

Step-by-step explanation:

f= 5(n−90) /4 (simplify)

f * 4=5(n−90) (multiply 4 on both sides)

4f=5(n−90) (regroup)

4f/5 =n−90 (divide 5 on both sides)

4f/5 +90=n (add 90 to both sides)
