Answer

-15x - 30 > -3x + 54

Explanation

Let's break this sentence down.

Thirty less than means [whatever goes before] minus 30.

Negative fifteen is -15.

Times a number means multiplying by a number. The number will be a variable. And in this case, the variable will be x.

Is greater than means more than.

Negative three is -3.

Times a number means multiplying by a number (in case you forgot or get confused, I wrote it again). That number will be a variable; x. This is the same number.

Now let's write down the equation.

Let's break both sides of the inequality, meaning the left side of 'greater than' and the right side.

The left side says this; "thirty less than negative fifteen times a number."

So let's write this.

So thirty less is minus 30. You are subtracting from "negative fifteen times a number."

Negative fifteen is -15... times a number is -15x.

So the left side of the inequality is -15x - 30.

The right side says this; "54 more than negative three times a number."

54 more than means adding 54 meaning + 54.

And you are adding 54 to "negative three times a number."

Negative three is -3, times a number is -3x.

So the right side of the inequality is -3x + 54.

So the full inequality is -15x - 30 > -3x + 54.

Use the trend line to predict what the value of variable N will be when variable M equals 50.
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

N = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Normally the coordinate system goes:

x axis (horizontal)

y axis (vertical)

Here, we have:

Horizontal axis as "M", and

Vertical axis as "N"

We want to know what N will be when M equals 50.

So, we look at the x-axis and go to M equals 50.

Then we move up until the "trend line". The intersection.

If we move directly left to vertical axis (N variable), we see that it is at the point:

N = 10

So,

When M = 50, N = 10
