When applying indirect proofs, we assume the negation of the conclusion is true, and show that this assumption would lead to nonsense, or contradiction.
In our case we assume a is not smaller than 7, that is we assume a≥7.
a≥7 then, multiplying both sides by 3:
3a≥21, then, adding both sides 7:
3a+7≥28,
which is a contradiction because 3a+7 is smaller than 28.
So our assumption is wrong, which means the opposite of it is correct.
Answer: assume a≥7
Answer:
6.95
Step-by-step explanation:
to find how much stephanie spends for first we will find how much probhjot spends and then subtract 3.45 dollars from that value alvin spends 2.60 dollars
prohbjot spends 4 times as much as alvin or
4× 2.60=10.4
so prohbjot spends 10.4 dollars
stephanie spends3.45 dollars less than prohbjot or
10.4 -3.45 =6.95
so stephanie spends <u>6.95 </u>dollars

To get answer A, Dave took 47*5 = 235
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 147 containers that contain 5 gallons each. We need to multiply to find the total number of gallons.
total number of gallons = containers * number of gallons per container
= 147* 5 gallons per container
=735 gallons
To get answer A, Dave took 47*5 = 235
