Answer:

We can solve inequalities to find all values of the variable that make the inequality true. The idea is to get the variable all by itself on one side of the inequality sign so we can easily see the solutions to the inequality.

Hence for any given inequality and for any given number if we put that number in that inequality and see that the given inequality sign holds true than that number will be a solution of the inequality otherwise it is not an solution of the inequality.

ABC ≃DEF. Find the lengths of the given sides

GuDViN [60]

Answer:

BC = 8 and EF = 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since triangle ABC and DEF are congruent to each other, BC corresponds with EF (as determined by the triangle names).

Set BC and EF equal to each other.

x + 6 = 3x + 2

Subtract x from both sides.

6 = 2x + 2

Subtract 2 from both sides.

4 = 2x.

Divide 2 on both sides.

x = 2.

Substitute 2 for x.

BC = 2 + 6

BC = 8

Since we already know that EF is congruent to BC, EF is also 8.

EC = 3(2) + 2

EC = 6 + 2

EC = 8

Tara wants to attend a four-year college to become a math teacher. Which statements explain the possible differences in total ye

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

- A public in-state college charges less for in-state tuition than for out-of-state tuition.
- Tara will most likely have to pay room and board expenses at an out-of-state public college, but might be able to commute to a public college in state.

Explanation:
If Tara wants to study out of state she could face higher tuition costs; public universities generally favor their residents with lower tuition costs, contrary to the charge for students who comes from other states.
Also, if she wants to study outside the state, Tara would have to analyze the costs of a residence and food that she will have to cover if she studies outside the state. On the contrary, if she studies in the state she could live with her family and only cover the transportation costs.

hope this helps!

lesya [120]

Given:

Room is 5 meters by 8 meters.

Measure of squaree tiles is 14-inch.

$\begin{gathered} \text{Area of the room=5}\times8 \\ \text{Area of the room=}40m^2 \end{gathered}$ $1m^2=1550inch^2$ $\begin{gathered} \text{Area of each tile=14}\times14 \\ \text{Area of each tile=}196inch^2 \end{gathered}$ $\begin{gathered} \text{Number of tiles to floor the room=}\frac{40\times1550}{196} \\ \text{Number of tiles to floor the room}=316.3265 \end{gathered}$

Approximately 316 tiles are required to floor the room.
