<span>Slope of JK=((-1)-2)/(4-(-3)=-3/7
Slope of KL=((-5)-(-1)/(2-4=2
Slope of LM=((-2)-(-5))/(-5-2)=-3/7
Slope of MJ=(2-(-2))/((-3)-(-5))= 2
JK is parallel to LM and KL is parallel to MJ. Therefore JKLM is a parallelogram.</span>
In the 7th and 8th grade combined, there 3+5 girls = 8 girls, and 7+5 boys = 12 boys. If there are only boys and girls, then there are 12+8=20 students in all.
The fraction of girls out of the total is P = 8/20 = 2/5.
Answer:
The correct answer is x > 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
An inequality compares two quantities unlike an equality. An inequality is written with either a greater than ( > ) or lower than ( < ) or greater than equal to ( 
) or less than equal to ( 
) signs. We solve the above given inequality to find the solutions of the unknown x.
Firstly we change the right hand side quantity to fraction.
We then transfer the - 
to the right hand side and add them. The inequality sign does not change as we are simply adding or subtracting terms from both the ends.
Finally we divide both sides with 
to get the required solution. The inequality sign does not change as we are multiplying both the ends with a positive quantity.
This gives us the answer as x > 2.
