Answer:
A: x = 20
C: x = -9
Step-by-step explanation:
You can solve the inequality and compare that with the offered choices, or you can try the choices in the inequality to see if it is true. Either approach works, and they take about the same effort.
<u>Solving it</u>:
Unfold it ...
-17 ≤ x -7.5 ≤ 17
Add 7.5 ...
-9.5 ≤ x ≤ 24.5
The numbers 20 and -9 are in this range: answer choices A and C.
_____
<u>Trying the choices</u>:
A: |20 -7.5| = 12.5 ≤ 17 . . . . this works
B: |-10 -7.5| = 17.5 . . . doesn't work
C: |-9 -7.5| = 16.5 ≤ 17 . . . . .this works
D: |27-7.5| = 19.5 . . . doesn't work
The choices that work are answer choices A and C.
Answer:
6-
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Normally it would be 40 and anything over 80 hours in a two-week time frame would be considered OT
Step-by-step explanation:
The scenario will will be represented by: 
The number will be -13
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to convert the given situation into the mathematical form
Let x be the number
Then
"a number plus itself"
x+x
"plus twice itself"
x+x+2x
"plus 4 times itself"
x+x+2x+4x
"is equal to -104"
