Answer:
70 I think but I'm not sure
Step-by-step explanation:
AC=70
Even though we don't know the number yet, we need to give it some kind of label
so that we can work with it. We can call it anything. I'd like to call it ' G '.
The number we're looking for is ' G '.
Half of it is 1/2 G
The sum of that and 6 is 1/2 G + 6
Ten times that is 10 (1/2 G + 6)
The question says that's 8.
So 10 (1/2 G + 6) = 8
Divide each side by 10 : 1/2 G + 6 = 0.8
Subtract 6 from each side: 1/2 G = - 5.2
Multiply each side by 2 : G = - 10.4
That seems like a weird answer. We should check it.
The number: -10.4
Half the number: - 5.2
The sum of half the number and 6: -5.2 + 6 = +0.8
Ten times that sum: 8
Yep ! By golly, sho nuff, dV-dT and E to the X !
Everything checks out, and the mystery number is - 10.4
Step-by-step explanation:
We find the equation of the solid blue line:
The line decreases by 1 unit for every 3 units across.
=> Slope of line = -1/3.
Also the y-intercept is 1.
=> Line equation: y = -1/3 x + 1.
We see that the graph below this line is shaded.
Therefore all y-values below or on the line are represented by the graph.
=> y <= -1/3 x + 1.
The answer is y <= -1/3 x + 1.
